Getting this when trying to link together a controller with its index view.

With this in the controller:

class FeedbackController < ApplicationController
  def index
  end
end

And this in the routes:

resources :feedback

I get this:

NoMethodError in FeedbackController#index

undefined method `status' for nil:NilClass

And this stack trace:

I’ve tried pluralizing the controller to Feedbacks and adjusting the routes/filenames appropriately but I still get that error.

Also tried using :as => :feedback but still get the error. If I don’t have the /feedback/index.html.haml in the folder it will throw the right Template Missing page, but even with a totally empty model, controller and view it shows this status error.

    Figured this one out… what an oddball.

    You can’t have a response method defined in your controller. So I had:

    def response
    end
    

    And just having that will cause this error!
