Question

I have routes that work perfectly on one machine, but on another machine they are failing and I’ve had a hard time to figure out what is wrong. On the failing machine it return the following errors for get /groups/my and groups/ respectively

No route matches {:controller=>"groups/owner/static_content", :topic=>"general"}
No route matches {:controller=>"groups/static_content", :topic=>"general"}

I have no idea where

static_controller

and

:topic=>”general”

come from since they don’t appear anywhere in my routes file. Basically I have a route like

namespace :groups , :as => nil do
    root :to => 'groups#index'
    resources :groups, :only => [:show, :new, :create], :path => '' do
      collection do
        get :search
        get 'my' => 'owner/groups#my', :as => :my
      end
      member do
        post :subscribe
      end
      ... other resources within a group
     end
    end

Any idea what I have done wrong or I’m missing? I’m using rails 3.2.2 and ruby 1.9.3 on rvm

A route is usually called from the views, so always check your view for action_controller_name_path if Controller::Action can not be found!
