Hi, I have spent the last couple of hours Googling and trying any thing that i think will work but i haven't any luck. :(
Here is an outline of what I am trying to do. I want to show a use there info by going to "http://localhost:3000/ users/5c6e957b523f931fdda3e9922b680c2d868cf44b" (random token) This is what I have in the routes file and the controller. # routes Reg::Application.routes.draw do resources :users root :to => "users#new" match "/users/:token" => "users#show" end # controller def show @user = User.find(params[:token]) end At the moment it is giving me this error. Started GET "/users/5c6e957b523f931fdda3e9922b680c2d868cf44b" for 127.0.0.1 at 2011-01-30 09:54:23 +1100 Processing by UsersController#show as HTML Parameters: {"id"=>"5c6e957b523f931fdda3e9922b680c2d868cf44b"} Completed in 10ms ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound (Couldn't find User without an ID): app/controllers/users_controller.rb:7:in `show' This is one of my first rails apps so I don't know exactly what is causing it - I guess that it will be a simple thing :) Thanks for you help. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
