I’m running into this error
** (Postgrex.Error) ERROR 42P01 (undefined_table) relation "characters" does not exist
when I try to insert a character into the DB.
Steps taken:
Creating a movie:
alias Friends.{Movie, Character, Repo}
movie = %Movie{title: "Ready Player One", tagline: "Something about video games"}
Inserting the movie:
movie = Repo.insert!(movie)
Creating a character
character = Ecto.build_assoc(movie, :characters, %{name: "Wade Watts"})
Inserting a character
Repo.insert!(character)

It looks like you have a typo here. This says “charaters” but should be “characters”.
In the future, you can also
psql your_database_hereand then type\lto have it list the tables that exist, which can help make it easier to see typos like this.Twfo326
Thanks for the solution and debugging tips.
