ArgumentError (3 elements of civil date are necessary)
Problem
On creating a default date on a model using the after create, and by using Model.date_field = ‘2007-01-01′ we get the error ArgumentError (3 elements of civil date are necessary)
Solution
The workaround is to use:
Model.date_field = Date.civil(2007,01,01)
