In my permissions controller, I use Active record to look for a permission:
@permission = Permission.find(params[:user_id])
If this returns a result I then look up the permission.name And pass this to my controller.
Problem is sometimes this does returna result, othertimes it does not. When it does not, it errors. How can I prevent that from occuring?
Use Case: 1. If the user does have a permission record, show it and let the user change it 2. If not, show they don't have a permission record and allow the user to set a permission.
Thanks
