Question

I have these urls:

http://localhost:3000/assets
http://localhost:3000/assets/new
http://localhost:3000/assets/34
http://localhost:3000/assets/34/edit

they work in my app.

I have this routes.rb file:

devise_for :users

match "listings/show_notes" => "listings#show_notes", :as => :show_notes

resources :users

resources :listings

resources :assets

 authenticated :user do
  root :to => "listings#index"
 end

#this route is for file downloads
 match "assets/get/:id" => "assets#get", :as => :download

 resources :admin_dash_board,  :only => :index

I have the following output when I type in rake routes

 new_user_session GET    /users/sign_in(.:format)       devise/sessions#new
        user_session POST   /users/sign_in(.:format)       devise/sessions#create

                     POST   /users(.:format)               users#create
            new_user GET    /users/new(.:format)           users#new
           edit_user GET    /users/:id/edit(.:format)      users#edit
                user GET    /users/:id(.:format)           users#show
                     PUT    /users/:id(.:format)           users#update
                     DELETE /users/:id(.:format)           users#destroy
            listings GET    /listings(.:format)            listings#index
                     POST   /listings(.:format)            listings#create
         new_listing GET    /listings/new(.:format)        listings#new
        edit_listing GET    /listings/:id/edit(.:format)   listings#edit
             listing GET    /listings/:id(.:format)        listings#show
                     PUT    /listings/:id(.:format)        listings#update
                     DELETE /listings/:id(.:format)        listings#destroy
                root        /                              listings#index
  admin_dash_board_index GET    /admin_dash_board(.:format)    admin_dash_board#index

As you can see there are no routes for the resource :assets.

Any idea why? Or whats going on?

Thanks

I think I found your answer here and here.

Try to add this line in your application.rb:

config.assets.prefix     = "/new_route"

EDIT – also here with some other options to solve the problem….
