Rails - May 2010 - [Newbie question] How does map.root?

Hello, I am very ill and I don''t remember how does map.root.

I have this in the routes.rb:

<ruby code>
ActionController::Routing::Routes.draw do |map|
  map.signup ''signup'', :controller =>
''users'', :action => ''new''
  map.logout ''logout'', :controller =>
''sessions'', :action => ''destroy''
  map.login ''login'', :controller =>
''sessions'', :action => ''new''
  map.resources :sessions

  map.resources :users

  map.connect '':controller/:action/:id''
  map.connect '':controller/:action/:id.:format''

  map.root :controller => ''index'', :action =>
''index''

  end
</ruby code>

And the controller is app/controllers/index.rb and it have the class
Index and the def Index. This is the code:

<ruby code>
class Index < ActiveRecord::Base
  def Index

  end
  end
</ruby code>

If I put this in my rails project, say me this the localhost:

<quote>
We''re sorry, but something went wrong.

We''ve been notified about this issue and we''ll take a look at
it
shortly.
</quote>

Can someone explain me how does the map.root?

Thanks for your attention.

Greetings

I don''t think this has anything to do with map.root - your controller
should be called IndexController, it should be in index_controller.rb
and it shouldn''t be inheriting from ActiveRecord::Base. Also, method
names should begin with a lowercase character.
