Routes problem in form

#1

Hello all,

I'm relatively new to rails and have been doing ok with it but I have
run into an issue that I'm sure has a really easy solution that I just
can't seem to see.

Basically I have an app and have namespaced and admin section to it.
I'm getting the following error:

No route matches {:action=>"show", :controller=>"admin/carriers"}

The code at fault is this

<%= form_for(@carrier, :url => admin_carrier_path, :html =>
{ :multipart => true }) do |f| %>

Basically I'm trying to create a new carrier but the form won't render
due to that error. In my routes file I have the following code.

  namespace :admin do
    resources :carriers
  end

And rake routes does show a route that should match. I'm using rails
3.0.3 if that is any help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do you want admin_carriers_path? You can probably simplify things
simply by saying form_for([:admin, @carrier], :html => {:multipart =>
true}}

Well I've figured this one out so no worries.

Thanks for that Fred! That's not what I did but it seems a better
approach. I ended up doing :url => { :action => "create" }.

One further question would [:admin, @carrier] work in link_to for my
destroy links? Currently i'm using admin_carrier_path(carrier).

Thanks!

yes, it will work
