Manish,

Post your routes.rb file so we can see how the routes are mapped.

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

here is routes.rb-------> ActionController::Routing::Routes.draw do |map|   # The priority is based upon order of creation: first created -> highest priority.

  # Sample of regular route:   # map.connect 'products/:id', :controller => 'catalog', :action => 'view'   # Keep in mind you can assign values other than :controller and :action

  # Sample of named route:   # map.purchase 'products/:id/purchase', :controller => 'catalog', :action => 'purchase'   # This route can be invoked with purchase_url(:id => product.id)

  # Sample resource route (maps HTTP verbs to controller actions automatically):   # map.resources :products

  # Sample resource route with options:   # map.resources :products, :member => { :short => :get, :toggle => :post }, :collection => { :sold => :get }

  # Sample resource route with sub-resources:   # map.resources :products, :has_many => [ :comments, :sales ], :has_one => :seller

  # Sample resource route within a namespace:   # map.namespace :admin do |admin|   # # Directs /admin/products/* to Admin::ProductsController (app/controllers/admin/products_controller.rb)   # admin.resources :products   # end

  # You can have the root of your site routed with map.root -- just remember to delete public/index.html.    map.root :controller => "welcome"

  # See how all your routes lay out with "rake routes"

  # Install the default routes as the lowest priority.   map.connect ':controller/:action/:id'   map.connect ':controller/:action/:id.:format' end

Interesting.

The default routes should be catching those links.

I tried quickly putting these into a test application of mine and they worked just fine. The "no route matches..." error only appeared when my controllers were wrong, either missing or misspelled. For example, if I created "app/controllers/terms_controller.rb" which has in it exactly what you put in, then http://localhost:3000/terms works just fine (well, in my example, I get Template Missing errors, but that's simply because I didn't create the view code).

So, your logic isn't off... I suspect a typo or spelling error.

Try adding one route   # Install the default routes as the lowest priority.   map.connect ':controller/:action/:id'   map.connect ':controller/:action/:id.:format'

  map.connect ':controller/:action'

end

Your default get routes are looking for an ID which you are not providing.

Lemme know if it works
