HABTM通过Checkboxes问题Rails 3

Question

I've been having a problem HABTM. I'm following tutorials as I see them but no luck. Here's my code:

class Country < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_and_belongs_to_many :videos
end

class Video < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_and_belongs_to_many :countries
end

Edit View:

<% for country in Country.find(:all) %>
  <%= check_box_tag "video[country_ids][]", country.id, @video.countries.include?(country.id) %>
  <%= label_tag "video[country_ids][]", country.name, :for => "video[country_ids][]" %><br />
<% end %>

Show View:

  <% for country in @video.countries %>
    <%= country.name %><br />
  <% end %>

Video Controller:

  def update
    @video = Video.find(params[:id])
    if @video.update_attributes(params[:video])
      flash[:notice] = "Successfully updated video."
      redirect_to video_url
    else
      render :action => 'edit'
    end
  end

And the error in the log:

The Videos table and the Countries table are not joining thru the HABTM. It says it can't find the countries_videos table. What am I missing?

Answer 1

Woops. Ok so I didn't realize that I need to actually create those tables. Got it all working now.

Thanks!
