You need to define a member resource on the map.resources :users.

try map.resources :users, :member => {:view_payments => :get} should work.

But I might suggest a more restful approach: map.resources :users, :has_many => :payments Then you can use links like http://localhost:3000/users/2/payments This calls the index action of a Payments controller. You can look at params[:user_id] to know which user is involved. This way you don''t need any custom actions. Just a thought.

Thanks to all who responded. I decided to go with the more RESTful approach: map.resources :users, :has_many => :payments and use the index action on the payments controller.
