Rails - Dec 2007 - Rake routes & console showing one thing, app doing another

OK, I have a routing problem, that seems to be working in the console,
and with rake routes but not in the app.

I have people that have nested tasks, like so:

-------------------------------
# routes.rb
map.resources :people do |person|
 person.resources :phone_notes
 person.resources :documents
 person.resources :tasks, :member => {:complete => :put}
end
map.resources :tasks, :member => {:complete => :put}
-------------------------------

And then if I go into irb and try to recognize and generate those
routes, all is good:

-------------------------------
>> rs = ActionController::Routing::Routes
>> rs.recognize_path("/people/9/tasks/95/complete", :method
=> :put)
=>
{:action=>"complete", :person_id=>"9",
:controller=>"tasks",
:id=>"95"}
>> rs.generate({:action=>"update",
:person_id=>"9",
:controller=>"tasks", :id=>"95"})
=> "/people/9/tasks/95/complete"
-------------------------------

So that is all good.

Then rake routes gives me a list which also shows things are good:

-------------------------------
complete_person_task PUT /people/:person_id/tasks/:id/complete
 {:controller => "tasks", :action => "complete"}
-------------------------------

But then in my people/show view I have:

-------------------------------
<%= button_to "Done", :url => complete_person_task_path(task),
:method
=> :put -%>
-------------------------------

Which generates this URL:

-------------------------------
http://127.0.0.1:3000/people/9?method=put&url=%2Fpeople%2F9%2Ftasks%2F95%2Fcomplete
-------------------------------

Which gives the following error:

-------------------------------
Unknown action
No action responded to 9
-------------------------------

So obviously the route is not tagging on the custom nested route I
have made.

So I disabled the "default" routes at the bottom and then I get:

-------------------------------
ActionController::MethodNotAllows

Only get, put, and delete requests are allowed

Request Parameters:

{"url"=>"/people/9/tasks/95/complete",
 "method"=>"put" }
-------------------------------


Anyone got any ideas?  I am sure it is something simple, but just
tearing my hair out on this one.

Regards

Mikel

The solution was simple, button_to doesn''t take :url => url, it just
takes the "complete_person_task_path(task) as the item.

so the button_to line becomes.

<%= button_to "Done", complete_person_task_path(task), :method
=> :put %>

Thanks to someone on IRC for finding this one.
