Couldn't find Class with ID=#num
Reported by Ryan Bigg | August 18th, 2008 @ 01:53 AM | in 2.x
In Rails 2.1, in my controller I have:
Client.find(params[:id], :joins => [:address, :mailing_address])
where the mailing_address association is possibly nil. Doing a find on a client with this code where the client's mailing address is nil, it says:
Couldn't find Client with ID=1
This is misleading, since the Client with the id of 1 DOES exist.

The :joins parameter adds an INNER JOIN clause to the query, which causes the database to filter out clients without a mailing_address.
Replacing :joins with :include gives the desired behaviour (by using a LEFT JOIN clause).
The error might seem misleading, but there's no way rails could tell the difference between a missing mailing_address and a missing client when :joins is used.
This ticket should probably be closed.
