First, the facts:
When I navigate to localhost:3000/engage I get the following error:
ActionController::RoutingError at /
No route matches {:controller=>"engage/home"}
Here’s my routes.rb file:
Kt::Application.routes.draw do
#resources :authentications
resources :paths
mount Engage::Engine => '/engage', :as => 'engage'
resources :comments do
member {post :forresource}
end
resources :resources do
member { post :vote }
collection {get :search}
end
devise_for :users
resources :userResourceView
resources :learningPaths
get "home/index"
devise_scope :user do
get "/login" => "devise/sessions#new"
end
devise_for :user, :path => '', :path_names => {:sign_up => "register" }
match '/user_profile', :to =>'users#index'
get 'tags/:tag', to: 'resources#index', as: :tag
match '/auth/:provider/callback' => 'authentications#create'
match '/auth/:provider/failure', :to => 'authentications#failure'
#match '/auth/:provider/callback?error_reason...', :to => 'profiles#failure'
match '/resources', to: 'resources#create', :via => :post
match 'contact' => 'contact#new', :as => 'contact', :via => :get
match 'contact' => 'contact#create', :as => 'contact', :via => :post
match '/forums' => 'forums#index'
root to: 'home#index', :as => :home

Also, the error mentions app/views/shared/_header.html.erb. Here is that file:

</div>
<div class="signin">
<a href="#">

</div>
</a>
<% unless current_user.nil? %>

<% else %>
<%= link_to "Sign In", url_for(current_user) %>
<% end %>
<%= link_to image_tag("downArrow.png", :style => "height:5px;margin-left:3px;vertical-align:middle;"), url_for(current_user) %>

Steps I’ve taken thus far (will be updating):
- Made sure to bundle install
- Ran rake db:reset
- Ran rake db:migrate
- Asked my team what might have happened between two days ago and now. I’ll be looking through the git log and such.
Now, I can see that /engage is routed to the engage, but where is this /home coming from? Shouldn’t /engage just go to engage/topics#index?
Do you have the home controller setup in your main application? The reason lies in the _header.html.erb file where you are using the link to index action of home controller.
I guess you are using the main application’s layout/template to render the engine’s view. And the _header.html.erb is also part of the template that is rendering the engine’s view.
The mountable Engines in rails work in a way that if you want to access the route of main application’s controller/action you need to call in on main_app. So you can change the link_to line to look something like:
