Rails 5 nested attributes not saving update

I have two models with nested attributes. My form can update book :title, but not nested attributes. After I submit i see paramaters is going in terminal but there is no rollback just (0.2ms)begintransaction (0.2ms)commit transaction.

I spent whole day to solve that, i tried inverse_of, optional: true, autosave: true in models. But still not able save update. Also there is no unpermitted paramater error. There is another problem.

Model:

has_many :pages
accepts_nested_attributes_for :pages

Controller:

def update
  if @book.update_attributes(book_params)
    redirect_to @book
  else
    render 'edit'
  end
end

def book_params
  params.require(:book).permit(:title, pages_attributes: [:id, :state])
end

My form:

<%= form_for(@book) do |f| %>
  <%= f.label :title %>
  <%= f.text_field :title, :autofocus => true, class: 'form-control' %>

  <%= f.fields_for :pages do |builder| %>
    <%= builder.select(:state, options_for_select({ "close" => 0, "open" => 1, })) %> 
  <% end %> 
  <%= f.submit 'Submit',  %>
<% end %>

Example console result:

book = Book.first
book.update(title:"test", pages_attributes: [id: 124142 , book_id: 1, state: 1 ])
   (0.2ms)  begin transaction
   (0.2ms)  commit transaction

EDIT

Server log:

Could you try f.fields_for :pages, @book.pages.build do |builder|? I'm not 100% sure this will work but I had the same problem with fields for a while back and this is how I fixed it.
