Rails - Jul 2008 - Only get, put, and delete requests are allowed

Greetings,

I''m running into an odd problem here. Everything was working fine
until I started playing with my application this morning. It seems
that when I try to use my login action, I''m instead given this error.

Only get, put, and delete requests are allowed

This happens only after I submit the form. The login page is displayed
fine when it''s displayed using the GET method. Here is my controller
code:

  def login
    session[:member_id] = nil
    if request.post?
      member = Member.authenticate(params[:username],
params[:password])
      if member
        session[:member_id] = member.id
        flash[:notice] = "You have successfully logged in!"
        redirect_to stories_path
      else
        flash.now[:notice] = "Invalid username/password combination"
      end
    end
  end

None of the code runs from within the ''if request.post?''
block. I
removed the code and simply added a redirect_to to see what would
happen, and the error still persists. At the bottom of the error page,
it says:

{"cookie"=>[],
 "Cache-Control"=>"no-cache",
 "Allow"=>"GET,
 PUT,
 DELETE"}

Is there a way to edit this to allow POST as well?

I''ve read on the Internet that moving your route high in the file will
help, it didn''t. My rout looks like:

map.resources :members, :collection => { :login => :get, :logout
=> :get }

From day one, I''ve had this error message pop up often. It seemed to
do so after editing my routes. A simple reboot of my server resolved
the problem on these occasions - it''s not helping here.

Any help would be appreciated. I''ve already played with this for a few
hours with no luck. :( Thanks for your time!

You''ve said that login had to be a get, but your''re doing a
post.

That did the trick. I wonder why it has been working all this time
with :get instead of :any. That''s very peculiar!
