Odd.
What happens when you put the data straight into the table without Cake?
What are the data types of the fields? Do you have any validation rules in your
PracticeInstance model? If not (I have experienced this before) it passes Cake
validation but fails at the database level, tricking Cake into thinking that
all is OK.
Are you running this from within the practice_instances controller? If so, try
this:
if ($this->PracticeInstance->save($this->data['PracticeInstance'])):
--do something
else:
die(debug($this->PracticeInstance->validationErrors));
endif;
And see what pops up.
