First, here's the full error I'm getting when I try to load the /tasks page:

NoMethodError in Tasks#index

Showing C:/Sites/task_mgr/app/views/tasks/index.html.erb where line #8 raised:

undefined method `name' for nil:NilClass
Extracted source (around line #8):

5: 	<li>

I changed my table "companies", to "projects" and went through and updated all the references to company/companies.  Everything is working fine, except I am again getting that same validation error when I try to create a new task on the projects/4/tasks/new.  It's not getting the project_id and therefore the validation is failing.  If I hard code the params[:project_id] with the actual number of the project, it creates fine.  

I tried all the same things we did yesterday and the day before, to no avail.  


**********Here's the error message:

ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid in TasksController#create

Validation failed: Project can't be blank
