First, test that the models work in the console or unit tests.
Second, I'm not sure if scaffolding normalises an association to show a 
string field of the associated object instead of just the id. It 
wouldn't know which text field to show, I don't think. You may need to 
generate the scaffolding, and modify the Rhtml files to show the correct 
value.
