Hi all

I just upgraded a project of mine from rails 2.1 to 2.2. Becouse of this  
upgrade, I have a link that doesn’t work anymore. I get an error when  
rendering the page:

outgoing\_invoice\_url failed to generate from {:action=\>“show”,  
:override=\>true, :controller=\>“outgoing\_invoices”, :id=\>“2297.pdf”},  
expected: {:action=\>“show”, :controller=\>“outgoing\_invoices”}, diff:  
{:override=\>true, :id=\>“2297.pdf”}

I have build the link as followed:

\<%= “#{outgoing\_invoice\_path(”#{outgoing\_invoice.id}.pdf", :override =\>  
true)}" %\>

It should render the link for the show action but also needs to send a  
parameter with it.  
This worked in Rails 2.1. I know that there are some routing changes in  
rails 2.2, but I can’t see what is wrong with mine.

Could anyone help me?

Thanks in advance for the help.

You could try to use formatted\_items\_path(:pdf)

formatted\_items\_path nor, formatted\_item\_path seems to work. Both result  
in a no method error.
