Good day, people, I installed a fully working Ruby on Rails on my Debian Squeeze system today and am studying a tutorial about Ruby on Rails right now. It says that in the main folder of my app, I should type
ruby script/generate controller Stories index
Good, but that seems to be for older ruby versions than mine. I get a 'file not found' error. So I took a little look around the directory and found that I may use:
ruby script/rails generate controller Stories index
Now I get the following:
create app/controllers/stories_controller.rb route get "stories/index" invoke erb create app/views/stories create app/views/stories/index.html.erb invoke test_unit create test/functional/stories_controller_test.rb invoke helper create app/helpers/stories_helper.rb invoke test_unit create test/unit/helpers/stories_helper_test.rb
Good! Then it's said that I should go to http://localhost:3000/stories where I would find a quite empty starting page. But the only thing I'll get is
Routing Error No route matches "/stories"
I thought for a second and typed in http://localhost:3000/stories/index , and I get
Stories#index Find me in app/views/stories/index.html.erb
Huh. That's good for the time being, because something happens in some kind and I got a functioning (at least halfway) controller. But why won't it use /stories/index just for the parent directory /stories -- and especially: Why doesn't it do that as _automatically by official Ruby on Rails tools generated_ code? Would look some kinda stupid when every url of my website will have /index at the end. >:s
