The answer is in the error if you look carefully. You want it to link to controller articles, action new, but the error says that it is going to controller articles/new.

You just need <%= link_to 'Add new weird stuff', new_article_path %> Colin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
