I'm on Rails 3.2.8 and Ruby 1.9.3. I'm having trouble figuring out why the validations on the nested attributes are not being run or returning any errors. When I submit the form with nothing filled in, I get errors back for the parent model (User), but not for the child model (Account). In my code below, I have a User model which has_one owned_account (Account model), and an Account model that belongs_to an owner (User model). The Account model has a text field for a subdomain string. It seems that when I submit the form without including the subdomain field, the validations on the Account model are not run at all. Any ideas on how I can get the validations here working? Thanks in advance for any help or pointers. user.rb <pre><code>class User < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessible :owned_account_attributes has_one :owned_account, :class_name => 'Account', :foreign_key => 'owner_id' validates_associated :owned_account accepts_nested_attributes_for :owned_account, :reject_if => proc { |attributes| attributes['subdomain'].blank? } end </code></pre> account.rb <pre><code>class Account < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessible :owner_id, :subdomain belongs_to :owner, :class_name => 'User' validates :subdomain, :presence => true, :uniqueness => true, :format => { ...some code... } end </code></pre> new.haml <pre><code>= form_for @user do |f| ... User related fields ... = f.fields_for :owned_account_attributes do |acct| = acct.label :subdomain = acct.text_field :subdomain = submit_tag ... </code></pre> users_controller.rb <pre><code>class UsersController < ApplicationController def new @user = User.new end def create @user = User.new(params[:user]) if @user.save ... end end </code></pre>

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
