Simple app - problems w/ routes

[clemcrock]

Hello,


I'm trying to get the backbone of a rails project up and running on localhost and also on a rails playground hosted site.

On localhost the app runs great and I can call my say/hello w/ either:

http://localhost:3000/controller/say/hello

or

http://localhost:3000/say/hello,

but when I try this on my rails playground site I get this when I call the say/hello like this:

http://erichermann.com/say/hello:

ActionView::MissingTemplate (Missing template say/hello.html.erb in view path /home/c73mr0ck/railsapp/app/views):
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.1.1/lib/action_view/template.rb:85:in `raise_missing_template_exception'
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.1.1/lib/action_view/template.rb:78:in `set_extension_and_file_name'
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.1.1/lib/action_view/template.rb:15:in `initialize'

And I get this when I call the say/hello like this:

http://erichermann.com/controller/say/hello:

ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches "/controller/say/hello" with {:method=>:get}):
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.1.1/lib/action_controller/routing/recognition_optimisation.rb:67:in `recognize_path'
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.1.1/lib/action_controller/routing/route_set.rb:384:in `recognize'
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.1.1/lib/action_controller/dispatcher.rb:148:in `handle_request'
ect.


My controller code looks like this

class SayController < ApplicationController
  def hello
  end
end

And my routes.rb code looks like this:

ActionController::Routing::Routes.draw do |map|
  map.connect ':controller/:action/:id'
  map.connect ':controller/:action/:id.:format'
end

One thing that could be causing a big problem is that on localhost, my rails version is: Rails 1.2.6

and on the Rails Playground hosting the version is: Rails 2.1.1

Any ideas how I can get this to work in both places?

Thanks,
Clem

Alright, so ...
MissingTemplate (Missing template say/hello.html.erb in view path /home/c73mr0ck/railsapp/app/views)

What's in your railsapp/app/views ? Do you have a hello.html.erb in there?

I have a hello.rhtml view in there.

What in tarnations is a .erb file?

Now after a bit of tech support I now get this when I go to:

http://erichermann.com/say/hello

Code:

Expected /home/c73mr0ck/railsapp/app/controllers/say_controller.rb to define SayController
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.4/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:249:in `load_missing_constant'
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.4/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:452:in `const_missing'
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.4/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:464:in `const_missing'

and I get this when I go to:

http://erichermann.com/controller/say/hello

no route found to match "/controller/say/hello" with {:method=>:get}
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.13.6/lib/action_controller/routing.rb:1325:in `recognize_path'

/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.2.6/lib/fcgi_handler.rb:168:in `process_request'

It all seemed so simple at first....

.erb : embedded ruby

the say_controller.rb should have something like :

class SayControler < ApplicationController
end

in it.. Does it?

This is my SayController code:

class SayController < ApplicationController
  def hello
  end
end

*hits head against the wall*
I read your first post 12 times before the last two lines came into focus..

One thing that could be causing a big problem is that on localhost, my rails version is: Rails 1.2.6
and on the Rails Playground hosting the version is: Rails 2.1.1

Please, do upgrade to 2.1.1 on your localhost. The differences are huge. The 'SayController' looks familiar from a tutorial so it probably won't be too much work to start over.. But make sure you're reading a 2.0 / 2.1 tutorial.

In both my local and remote environment.rb file I have the rails version set as this:

RAILS_GEM_VERSION = '1.2.6'


Unfortunately, for our main work project, we are running our app on a 1.2.6 rails version so it's safer to run all other apps on this version as well on localhost.

I was under the assumption that if I specified this
RAILS_GEM_VERSION = '1.2.6' in my environment.rb it would force my app to run as rails 1.2.6?

See if you can kill all the ruby that was started on your production environment as the wrong version of rails..
And then maybe, apply rails freeze_gems or rails freeze_edge (I don't know enough to tell you which one would be appropriate).
