I''m trying to set up and ''admin'' interface for each of my models. I have a controller for each of them under ''app/controllers/admin/'' book_controller.rb page_controller.rb and so on. So as not to get in the way of normal use I''m ''forcing'' a prefix in the routing/url with lines in routes.rb like map.connect ''/admin/page/:page/:action'', :controller => ''admin/page_controller'', :action => ''show'', :requirements => { :page => page_name_requirement } when I experiment with app.url_for() in the console I get the results I expect. But when I fire up the server and try to go to http://localhost.:3000/admin/page/ChapterOne I get NameError in Admin/web controllerController#list uninitialized constant Admin::WebControllerController Two questions: Should my controller read: class Admin::WebController < ApplicationController which was how it was generated and/or should the routing be fudged in some way. Remember, this is not the ''real'' application. The real application comes out at http://localhost.:3000/TheStoryofLitchfileld/ChapterOne and the routing for that is lower down in the routes.rb -- "Quality refers to the extent to which processes, products, services, and relationships are free from defects, constraints and items which do not add value." - Dr. Mildred G Pryor, 1995 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

If you have a controller in app/controllers/admin/book_controller.rb defined like this: class Admin::BookController < ApplicationController Then the default route to the controller will be /admin/book. There is no need to add anything to routes.rb, it will "just work".

It is supposed to be http://localhost:3000/TheStoryofLitchfileld/ChapterOne aka ":book/:chapter" and that goes to the book_chapter_controller.rb There is path before it to indicate the namespace or the controller. -- Always do your best.
