Exception on `foreign_type` field after upgrade to Rails 6 #25

Closed brightbytes-dude closed 3 years ago

brightbytes-dude commented 3 years ago

I just upgraded a Rails 5.2 app to Rails 6.0, and now see a bunch of test failures like the following:

  1) ConcernsController POST create adds parent contact to concern 
     Failure/Error: if concern.save

     ActiveModel::UnknownAttributeError:
       unknown attribute 'foreign_type' for PaperTrail::VersionAssociation.

Here are the Gemfile.lock updates required for the Rails upgrade:

-    paper_trail (10.0.1)
+    paper_trail (11.1.0)
-    paper_trail-association_tracking (1.0.0)
+    paper_trail-association_tracking (2.1.1)

Will poke around some more, but any ideas on how to fix would save me some flailing ... :-)

See the changelog for upgrade instructions when changing versions of PT and or PT-AT

See the below link for the resolution to this.

That solved it, thanks!!

And, I can't believe that I didn't know that CHANGELOG.md is a thing - I must have wasted days of my life trying to figure out upgrade issues that were clearly documented in this file. 🤦

Also some other projects use HISTORY.md. If you see any libraries without a changelog you should encourage them to add one.
