(Using Rails 4.1.1 with Ruby 2.1.1 on Mac OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard)
I'm doing a Rails tutorial (in case you are interested in: It's
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started.html), and I'm stuck on
the following:
I create in some erb file a link using
<%= link_to 'Add new weird stuff', controller: new_article_path %>
and this raises the exception
ActionController::UrlGenerationError in Articles#index
No route matches {:action=>"index", :controller=>"articles/new"}
The helper new_article_path returns 'articles/new'. My routes are these:
welcome_index GET /welcome/index(.:format) welcome#index
articles GET /articles(.:format) articles#index
POST /articles(.:format) articles#create
new_article GET /articles/new(.:format) articles#new
edit_article GET /articles/:id/edit(.:format) articles#edit
article GET /articles/:id(.:format) articles#show
PATCH /articles/:id(.:format) articles#update
PUT /articles/:id(.:format) articles#update
DELETE /articles/:id(.:format) articles#destroy
root GET / welcome#index
My ArticlesController class has a method 'new' with empty body.
I have views/articles/new.html.erb.
When I manually enter the URL http://localhost:3001/articles/new in my
browser, the correct page is shown.
I had expected that my link_to call() would generate a link to that very
page, but instead it throws an exception. Something seems to be missing
here.
Where am I wrong here, and how can I fix it? (I hope the information
provided is complete to answer this question).
