  The problem is that you are trying to tack on a habtm to a not-yet-created record. This is not and will not be possible as it has not yet been assigned an id. However, something like this should work:

  admin_role = Role.find(:first, :conditions => "title = 'admin'")
  user_role = Role.find(:first, :conditions => "title = 'user'")
  presenter_role = Role.find(:first, :conditions => "title = 'presenter'")
  
  admin = User.seed(:email) do |s|
    s.email = "o:admin@somewhere.com">admin@somewhere.com" 
    s.first_name = "Admin" 
    s.last_name = "User" 
    s.password = "password"
    s.password_confirmation = "password"
  end
  
  RoleAssignmentModel.seed(:user_id, :role_id) do |s|
    s.user_id = admin.id
    s.role_id = admin_role.id
  end
  
  RoleAssignmentModel.seed(:user_id, :role_id) do |s|
    s.user_id = admin.id
    s.role_id = user_role.id
  end

  Thanks for the pointer. This actually worked:

  
  user = User.seed(:email) do |s|
    s.email = "admin@somewhere.com" 
    s.first_name = "Admin" 
    s.last_name = "User" 
    s.password = "password"
    s.password_confirmation = "password"
  end
  
  user.roles << admin_role
  user.roles << user_role

  Maybe I'm missing something, but the solution involving RoleAssignmentModel doesn't work for most HABTM associations, because the join table is ID-less and there is no assignment model.

  The best I've come up with is something like:

  user.roles << admin_role unless user.roles.include?(admin_role)

  (the include? check is necessary when the data has been previously seeded.)
