I created a new project to test your point. The following are the routes generated. In the case of machine, I have no problem with "machines/new", but "equipment/new" provides the exact-same error as before. So, the route generated by Rails creates ambiguity without my doing anything special.
map.resources :machines map.resources :equipment Your snide comment about BSAT is ignorant of the effort I've put into trying to solve this problem. I've been professionally programming for well over a decade, and typically resort to the hostility of forums only after I can't solve the problem through intense research. You assume I'm the sort who runs to a forum first, not last.
