Question

I have the Rails Environment setup on my Mac.

Local: ~/GitHub/Warehouse/

Server: http://localhost:3001/

Here is my /config/routes.rb:

Warehouse::Application.routes.draw do

    resources :events
    resources :locations
    resources :categories
    resources :items

    get "home/index"
    root :to => "home#index"

end

I put my application on the server in a folder ~/warehouse. It has a symbolic link of ~/public_html/warehouse/ that points to ~/warehouse/public.

So my url is:
http://showtime.www77.a2hosting.com/warehouse

I get the following error:

Started GET "/warehouse" for 184.175.153.98 at Sat Nov 24 21:47:24 -0500 2012

ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches [GET] "/warehouse"):

What should my routes.rb table be like?? I’m confused with this. Please let me know what I should do to make this work. Thank you in advance!

Answer 1

Try changing your config.ru

map "/warehouse" do
  run Warehouse::Application
end

This mounts your application and rack middleware to the specified path or URI and all the children paths under it, so your routes should work properly. If you have problems with your assets then, adjust config.action_controller.asset_host within your environment configuration files in config/environments.
