Hi all,

I’m getting an error in my rails 3 app when trying to update a user’s  
profile:

Started POST “/users/1328-mturner” for 127.0.0.1 at 2010-06-11  
13:02:09

ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches “/users/1328-  
mturner”):

I’m not sure why this is happening as I’m using a standard controller  
as generated by rails:

def update  
@user = User.find(params[:id])

```
respond_to do |format|
  if @user.update_attributes(params[:user])
    format.html { redirect_to(@user, :notice => 'User information

```

was successfully updated.’) }  
format.xml { head :ok }  
else  
format.html { render :action =\> “edit” }  
format.xml { render :xml =\> @user.errors, :status  
=\> :unprocessable\_entity }  
end  
end  
end

I wonder if it is something to do with the fact it’s attempting to  
POST when it should be PUTting? Why would it be doing this?

Here’s what rake routes says about users:

```
                 GET /users(.:format)

```

{:controller=\>“users”, :action=\>“index”}  
users POST /users(.:format)  
{:controller=\>“users”, :action=\>“create”}  
new\_user GET /users/new(.:format)  
{:controller=\>“users”, :action=\>“new”}  
GET /users/:id(.:format)  
{:controller=\>“users”, :action=\>“show”}  
PUT /users/:id(.:format)  
{:controller=\>“users”, :action=\>“update”}  
user DELETE /users/:id(.:format)  
{:controller=\>“users”, :action=\>“destroy”}  
edit\_user GET /users/:id/edit(.:format)  
{:controller=\>“users”, :action=\>“edit”}

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks,

Mark
