Sqlite3 activerecord :order => "time DESC" doesn't sort
- by Ole Morten Amundsen
rails 2.3.4, sqlite3
I'm trying this
Production.find(:all, :conditions = ["time ?",
start_time.utc], :order = "time DESC",
:limit = 100)
The condition works perfectly, but I'm having problems with the :order = time DESC.
By chance, I discovered that it worked at Heroku (testing with heroku console), which runs PostgreSQL. However, locally, using sqlite3, new entries will be sorted after old ones, no matter what I set time to. Like this (output has been manually stripped): second entry is new:
Production id: 2053939460, time: "2010-04-24 23:00:04", created_at: "2010-04-24 23:00:05"
Production id: 2053939532, time: "2010-04-25 10:00:00", created_at: "2010-04-27 05:58:30"
Production id: 2053939461, time: "2010-04-25 00:00:04", created_at: "2010-04-25 00:00:04"
Production id: 2053939463, time: "2010-04-25 01:00:04", created_at: "2010-04-25 01:00:04"
Seems like it sorts on the primary key, id, not time. Note that the query works fine on heroku, returning a correctly ordered list! I like sqlite, it's so KISS, I hope you can help me...
Any suggestions?
