[SOLVED]  I guess..
It seems I had a wrong route in my cms_admin namespace

      namespace :cms_admin, :except => :show do
         match ''/'', to: ''base#jump''
           resources :sites do
 is the correct one...

but I tried to bypass the base controller and I wrote
      namespace :cms_admin, :except => :show do
         match ''/'', to: ''sites#index''
           resources :sites do

this raised the error : asking for Site being defined ....
