This isn''t a question but more of an FYI for any newbies as stupid as me that can''t figure out why they get a similar message like this when typing the application''s name into the URL thinking that it''s the same as the directory name. For example, my app was called moviecritic, so I tried navigating to http:localhost:3000/moviecritic after booting up WeBrick, but received this error. Then, I tried my model name, movie, instead of moviecritic and it worked. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

It wasnt the same as my model name, which was Movie, but the same as the table name in my DB. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

If you connect to /movies, then by default that will look for the "index" action in the "movies" controller (i.e., movies_controller.rb). Even if the table name is the same, it''s not involved at this stage. David -- Q. What is THE Ruby book for Rails developers? A. RUBY FOR RAILS by David A.
