ok there is a problem @user = User.find(params[:id]) <================= params[:id] is pulled from the url query string
in rails the convention is this /controller/action/id in cases there you need to pull one specific record /controller/action to pull a collection @user = User.find(params[:id]) here you are pulling an specific user but root :to => 'pages#home' there is no id at the end of your so params[:id] has nothing in it thats why Couldn't find User without an ID On Sat, Sep 11, 2010 at 2:08 PM, Anders_P <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks for your tips Colin! > > Hi radhames! > > Thanks for your help on my previous topic. > > Here is my routes.rb file: > > resources :users > resources :sessions, :only => [:new, :create, :destroy] > resources :ads, :only => [:new, :create, :destroy] > > match '/registrera', :to => 'users#new' > > match '/inloggning', :to => 'sessions#new' > match '/utloggning', :to => 'sessions#destroy' > > root :to => 'pages#home' > match '/kontakt', :to => 'pages#contact' > match '/om', :to => 'pages#about' > > Thanks! > > // Anders > > On 11 Sep, 19:21, radhames brito <[email protected]> wrote: > > home action seems to be a member restful action and it needs an id to > find > > the record but you are not declaring that route the right way > > show the routes please > > > > > > > > On Sat, Sep 11, 2010 at 8:25 AM, Colin Law <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > On 11 September 2010 12:14, Anders_P <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > Could you not top post please, it is easier to follow the thread if > > > comments are inserted into the previous post.
