ruby on rails datetime select not updating db

Question

im trying to use the builtin ruby helper for datetime select, though it doesnt seem to be passing the values through to ActiveRecord

form.haml.html

.row
      .two.columns
        = f.label :date_and_time, :class =>'left inline'
      .ten.columns
        = f.datetime_select('datetime', :prompt => {:day => 'Choose day', :month => 'Choose month', :year => 'Choose year'}, :order => [:day, :month, :year])

console output

Processing by EventsController#update as JS
  Parameters: {"utf8"=>"✓", "authenticity_token"=>"sebpDgAPPmK8q9024vrhN4eEQT7vZLr+pa5XdSicAMc=", "event"=>{"event"=>"1", "location_id"=>"13", "datetime(3i)"=>"5", "datetime(2i)"=>"5", "datetime(1i)"=>"2012", "datetime(4i)"=>"01", "datetime(5i)"=>"03", "duration"=>"34", "arrival_time"=>"34", "team_id"=>"1", "opponent_id"=>"4", "home_or_away"=>"Away"}, "commit"=>"Update Event", "id"=>"68"}

  Event Load (0.8ms)  SELECT "events".* FROM "events" WHERE "events"."id" = $1 LIMIT 1  [["id", "68"]]
  CACHE (0.0ms)  SELECT "events".* FROM "events" WHERE "events"."id" = $1 LIMIT 1  [["id", "68"]]
  User Load (1.4ms)  SELECT "users".* FROM "users" WHERE "users"."team_id" = 1
   (0.4ms)  BEGIN
   (0.9ms)  UPDATE "events" SET "updated_at" = '2013-02-09 11:44:24.830499', "selected_players" = '---
- ''''
' WHERE "events"."id" = 68
   (8.2ms)  COMMIT

According to your label it's :date_and_time field in your database, right? If so you should use it in your datetime_select:

= f.datetime_select :date_and_time, :prompt => {:day => 'Choose day', :month => 'Choose month', :year => 'Choose year'}, :order => [:day, :month, :year])

na the label is different to the actual field in the database

from what i can see on console the form is passing the hash but activerecord doesnt seem to be seeing it

found the issue was within the controller, still referring to old naming we had in place, since making the change all appears to be working
