Routes not working

rubyonrails-talk

Hello everyone,   I've been using RoR for awhile now, but I'm new to Rails 3... I'm trying to follow a tutorial that creates a registration page that creates a user. Simple enough, right? When I go to server:3000/user/register, it comes up with my registration page fine. However, when I submit it (form_for :user) it complains that my route (user/register) does not exist... Not quite sure whats going on... In routes.rb, I have 'get "user/register"' listed.

Can anyone clarify what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks,   - Jeff

Try doing this instead, and see if this helps:

form_for User.new

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately that doesn't work either - it gives me a NoMethodError...

I just figured it out - I added a line in my routes.rb under 'get "user/register"' that reads 'post "user/register"' ...

Does anybody know why this wasn't there to begin with?

Thanks, - Jeff
