We've just upgraded our Rails 2.0.2 app to 2.3 and the webservices create APIs are failing. Instead of receiving parsed XML, the controller's create method gets the whole xml as a hash key with the value nil.
To isolate this issue, I generated a vanilla app: $ rails scaffold_xml $ ./script/generate scaffold project title:string description:text $ rake db:migrate In real life I test this with cucumber features, but for the purposes of short repro steps, I added this to the top of projects_controller.rb skip_before_filter :verify_authenticity_token And then ran the POST for the create request on the command line $ curl -X POST -d '<project><title>Awesome</title><description>This is an awesome project.</description>' http://localhost:3000/projects.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project> <created-at type="datetime">2009-06-21T14:09:08Z</created-at> <description nil="true"></description> <id type="integer">1</id> <title nil="true"></title> <updated-at type="datetime">2009-06-21T14:09:08Z</updated-at> </project> The log says: Processing ProjectsController#create to xml (for 127.0.0.1 at 2009-06-21 07:09:08) [POST] Parameters: {"<project><title>Awesome</title><description>This is an awesome project.</description>"=>nil} Project Create (10.4ms) INSERT INTO "projects" ("updated_at", "title", "description", "created_at") VALUES('2009-06-21 14:09:08', NULL, NULL, '2009-06-21 14:09:08') Completed in 181ms (View: 134, DB: 10) | 201 Created [http://localhost/projects.xml] To test my assumptions, I repeated the above steps with "rails _2.0.2_ scaffold_xml_202" to look at it in the old version of rails (minus the forgery bit which didn't used to be required.) I must be missing something basic here. Can anyone enlighten me or point me to relevant docs?
