Migrations	I had trouble running your migrations out of the box. The second one, update_columns, contained a migration class named UpdateTables. Rails tries to find a class in the file with a name that matches the file name, which is why it was a problem. I suspect you started out with the name update_tables, ran the migration, and then changed the file name. Changing the name of the class to UpdateColumns fixed the problem and allowed me to get your site working.
