CakePHP Can't insert record with foreign key error -


i'm getting following error when trying insert record table:

error: sqlstate[23000]: integrity constraint violation: 1452 cannot add or update child row: foreign key constraint fails (invoice.quotes, constraint quotes_ibfk_1 foreign key (contacts_id) references contacts (id))

i have relationship setup between 2 tables 'contacts' , 'quotes'. 'quotes' has foreign key set contacts_id.

the add method in quotes controller looks this:

public function add() {         $this->log('quote controller --> add method...1');         $this->log($this->request->data);          if ($this->request->is('post')) {                                $this->quote->create(); // line writes details database.             if ($this->quote->save($this->request->data)) {                              $this->session->setflash('your quote has been saved.');                 $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));             } else {                                 $this->session->setflash('unable add quote.');             }                     }     } 

any appreciated.

the error happens when don't have correct foreign key when trying save data.

i guessing "contacts_id" value inside $this->request->data null / empty. might want add debug($this->request->data); after $this->quote->create();

and seems don't follow convention of cakephp. contacts_id field should contact_id. might fix problem.
