I'm assuming that you're defining a def resource method. This is to prevent unintentional behavior. The method you're clashing with here will be the resource method which is used to generate urls for "resources" eg. resource(@post) #=> /posts/3 If you really want to over ride the method you can call the override! method before declaring it. eg override! :resource def resource # your decleration here end However, it's there to help you identify that you're overwriting a part of the framework. Like most things in merb though... you can overwrite it ;) Cheers Daniel > > > > > -- > --------------------- > www.jaikoo.com > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "merb" group.
