I am working on a rails application and added a simple login system according to a book.
I created the controller admin: rails generate controller admin login logout index
It added the following routes to routes.db
get "admin/login"
get "admin/logout"
get "admin/index"
- I can got to http://localhost:3000/admin/login there is no problem at all.
- But when I try to login I get: No route matches "/admin/login"!
Now, the first confusing part is that the "login" method of my AdminController is not executed at all.
The second confusing part is that this code works like a charm - redirects everything to /admin/login:
def authorize
unless User.find_by_id(session[:user_id])
flash[:notice] = "you need to login"
redirect_to :controller => 'admin', :action => 'login'
end
end
Sidenotes:
- I restarted the server several times.
- I tried a different browser - to be sure there is no caching problem.
