try “rake routes” in your console and see if there is anything like: user {:action => ‘show’, :controller => ‘pictures’}

Here you don’t have any issue with paperclip it seems!! its some routing issue which is messing things up!

Hi,
You declared method show in picusers controller. And check the routes by giving rake routes in your project path. One more thing, if u changed anything in routes file, don’t forget to restart the server.

Thanks,
