Ruby on Rails has_one Model Not Supplying ID Column

I have a legacy rails (version 1.2.3) app which runs without issue on a number of servers (not to mention my local environment). Deployed to its newest server, though, and I now get ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: Mysql::Error: #23000Column 'video_id' cannot be null errors.

Below are t开发者_C百科he models/relationships, simplified:

class Video < ActiveRecord::Base
    has_one(:user, :dependent => :destroy)
end

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
    belongs_to(:video)
end

And below is a rails console transcript of the relationships failing:

>> video = Video.create(:title => 'New Video')
=> #<Video:0xb6d5e31c>...
>> video.id
=> 5
>> video.user = User.create(:name => 'Tester')
ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: Mysql::Error: #23000Column 'video_id' cannot be null: INSERT INTO users (`name`, `video_id`) VALUES('Tester', NULL)

Has anyone else come across ActiveRecord not sending an ID when it clearly knows it?

The correct syntax is

video.user.create(:name => 'Tester')

as you have it, it is trying to create the User before assigning it to video.user, per ruby order of evaluation.

Well, I've migrated this particular portion of this well-aged app to rails 2.3.5 and the following now does the trick:

video.create_user(:name => 'Tester')

Thanks for the input so far, but if anyone has any idea why the 1.2.3 version of the code works on every server it has met until today (older ActiveRecord disagreeing with a certain version MySQL in some obscure way, maybe?) I'd love to hear it.
