.erb invoked unexpectedly

I've got an app that starts up with: map.root :controller => "csvs", :action => 'startup'

The csvs_controller.rb is posted on http://www.pastie.org/340100

The startup routine checks the RAILS_ROOT + "/public/data/csv" directory for any files. Presently, the directory has none. Consequently, "aHashes", an array of hashes in line #112 should be empty.

That is indeed the case, as evidenced by the logger msg from line 113 appearing in the Command Window running Mongrel.

Therefore I expect lines 114 & 115 to be honored, i.e. nothing to rendered and the index method to be invoked.

Instead, I get: Missing template csvs/startup.erb in view path K:/_Projects/Ruby/ _Rails_Apps/PayrollApp/app/views:

Why is the app attempting to render something I don't expect ever to happen? (If I do find files, I'll insert their attributes in the database and redirect to index.

Where am I going wrong?

Thanks in advance, Richard

BTW, I included the routes.rb on that Pastie file.
