Ruby on Rails NameError: uninitialized constant

I just set up a new migration and model relationships, and in console when testing the relationship between tables I get the following error: NameError: uninitialized constant.

Does anyone have any idea what is wrong?

Thank you

Edit:

Here's the error

NameError: uninitialized constant Profile::ProfileNotification

Code from the ProfileNotification migration:

class CreateProfileNotifications < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    create_table :profile_notifications do |t|
      t.integer :profile_id, :null => false
      t.integer :notification_id, :null => false
      t.string :notification_text
      t.boolean :checked, :default => false
      t.boolean :update_reply, :default => false
      t.boolean :opinion_reply, :default => false
      t.boolean :message_reply, :default => false
      t.boolean :pm, :default => false
      t.boolean :accepted_friend, :default开发者_开发技巧 => false
      t.boolean :accepted_supporter, :default => false
      t.timestamps
    end
  end

  def self.down
    drop_table :profile_notifications
  end
end

Well, I figured out the problem. When I was running ruby script/generate model, I was typing ruby script/generate model ProfileNotifications. When I typed ruby script/generate model ProfileNotification (singular) it worked. Naming conventions kill me. Thanks for all the help.

It's breaking because you're referencing Profile::ProfileNotification which doesn't exist.

Rails considers this a model named ProfileNotification located in the Profile namespace, but your comment suggests that Profile is another model class and not a namespace.

Based on the migration you have posted, I think you're confused about the Rails naming convention for one-to-many relationships. Here's how I think it's supposed to look:

class CreateNotifications < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    create_table :notifications do |t|
      t.references :profile
      t.text :body
      t.boolean :checked, :default => false
      t.boolean :update_reply, :default => false
      t.boolean :opinion_reply, :default => false
      t.boolean :message_reply, :default => false
      t.boolean :pm, :default => false
      t.boolean :accepted_friend, :default => false
      t.boolean :accepted_supporter, :default => false
      t.timestamps
    end
  end

  def self.down
    drop_table :notifications
  end
end

class Profile < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :notifications
end

class Notification < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :profile
end

Now when you execute Profile.find(1).notifications you should get a list of the associated notifications to that profile.
