I saw a “railscasts” cast and did like them told me. Here is a part of my route.rb

  scope ':locale', :locale=> /#{I18n.available_locales.join("|")}/ do
    #..........
    #..........
    namespace :admin do
      resources :products do
         get :who_bought, :on=>:member
     end
     end
  end

  match '*path', :to=> redirect("/#{I18n.default_locale}/%{path}")
  match '', :to=> redirect("/#{I18n.default_locale}")

Because of this, some issues are caused now. Look at my log.

If I go to "http://localhost:3000/en/fdsfdsfdsfds" it will redirect me to "http://localhost:3000/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/en/fdsfdsfdsfds"

I want to get rid off that. What should I do?

    The problem is that you are not handling scoped requests to invalid resources. Your app redirects a request by adding a locale to it, but if there is nothing to match it in the locale block then it continues down and reaches the match catch-all line, appending another locale to it, ad infinitum.

    You need to add another catch-all line inside the scope block after you declare the resources, like this:

    scope ':locale', :locale=> /#{I18n.available_locales.join("|")}/ do

  ...

  namespace :admin do
    resources :products do
      get :who_bought, :on=>:member
   end
  end

  root to: "locale#root"
  match "*path", to: "locale#not_found"
end

match '*path', :to=> redirect("/#{I18n.default_locale}/%{path}")
match '', :to=> redirect("/#{I18n.default_locale}")

    In the cases you’ve presented, the request URL does not match any resources because you’ve namespaced your resources under admin, so you need to access them at URLs that have the prefix /en/admin/, /es/admin/ etc.
