Question

I am trying to submit a form for and keep running into this error:

No route matches [POST]

here is my form:

<%= form_for(@issue) do |f| %>
    <%= render 'fields', :f => f %>
    <div class="actions">
        <%= f.submit "Submit" %>
    </div>
<% end %>

and my routes:

  resources :apps do
    resources :issues
  end

I think i’m missing something with defining which app it is in the form_for but im not sure?

here’s my issue create action:

  def create
    @issue = Issue.new(params[:issue])
    @issue.app_id = params[:app_id]
    if @issue.save
      flash[:success] = "Issue added!"
      redirect_to @issue
    else
      render 'new'
    end
  end

Answer 1

you need to put the app in the form as well. Because you have the issues nested in the apps.

<%= form_for([@app, @issue]) do |f| %>
  <%= render 'fields', :f => f %>
  <div class="actions">
    <%= f.submit "Submit" %>
  </div>
<% end %>

Because you have your routes like this apps/:app_id/issues/:issues_id You need to fetch the @app in your controller.

You can check your available routes with this command: rake routes
