Thanks Webber 1. Noticed the missing bracket and fixed. 2. Have set a route as follows: match '/getdiagram', :to => 'prosesses#getDiagram' It seems to be executing the right controller/action from the error message i get 3. Tried that but get: c:/Users/Jason/rails_projects/procstor/app/controllers/prosesses_controller.rb:123: syntax error, unexpected tASSOC, expecting '}' respond_with { :status => 'okay' } ^ -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
