We have no idea what is causing this and have done the following to try and get the bottom of it, and nothing has helped fix the issue.

  • Open the active_record gem and put binding.pry in multiple to places to see what is going on.
  • Have a coworker pull down my branch to ensure it is not an issue with the setup on my machine (it’s not)
  • Remove the usage of the figaro gem in the database.yml file

We have gotten around it by setting config.active_record.schema_format = :sql and by using db:structure:load to create .sql files instead of schema.rb files, but we would rather not have to do this.

Any help would be deeply appreciated.

Thanks.

    Got an answer to this by submitting an issue to rails. Turns out it was an issue with the mysql_online_migrations gem.

    We were also facing similar issue, but due to activerecord-import gem. Bumped up the gem to latest version that supports active-record 6 and worked fine.
