Issue with listing a form_for a collection

Rails
1

I have a @people instance variable that is the return from
Person.find(:all)

I then want to have a revise.html that allows me to fill out one
textfield with a number that I can then @people.update_all(:revision)

I try to do this:REVISION CHANGE

<% form_for @people do |f| %>
<%= f.error_messages %>

<%= f.label :version %>
<%= f.text_field :version %>

<%= f.submit "Update" %>

<% end %>

and it blows up on me with:

undefined method
`person_person_person_person_person_person_person_person_path’ for
#ActionView::Base:0x101688c90
Extracted source (around line #3):

1: REVISION CHANGE
2:
3: <% form_for @people do |f| %>
4: <%= f.error_messages %>
5:


6: <%= f.label :version %>

Sorry Im confused by this helper and how it is trying to make the
form.

Try to use form_tag instead of form_for
<% form_tag ‘youraction’, :method=>‘yourmethod’ %>

<%= f.error_messages %>

<%= f.label :version %>
<%= f.text_field :version %>

<%= f.submit "Update" %>

and label_tag, text_field_tag, submit_tag helpers, as well

<% end %>
