ruby on rails: How to create table for a new model

database, ruby, ruby-on-rails-3

Solution

The order of your fieldname:type combo is incorrect. Try

rails generate model mynewmodel name:string description:string

Problem

I use ``` rails generate model mynewmodel string:name string:description ``` to generate a new model. How do I deploy this new model to my develop databse ? I already have a bunch of databases in my sqlite db. I have tried ``` rake db:migrate ``` it seemed having trouble to generate this new table in db. update: added error message ``` == CreateMynewmodels: migrating =============================================== -- create_table(:mynewmodels) rake aborted! An error has occurred, this and all later migrations canceled: undefined method `name' for #<ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::TableDefinition:0x3ad5c50> Tasks: TOP => db:migrate ``` Thanks
