I’m having difficultly getting simple page caching to work with named routes. I have a named route called “about” (url [About Us | Domain.com](http://www.domain.com/about)) which goes to the controller called “home” and an action called “about”. When activating page caching by adding this to the home controller caches\_page :about Rails creates the cached about page in “/home/about.html” instead of in “/about.html”. So every time a request comes in for the about page the web server cant find the cached page and directs the request to rails. I’ve had a look around for anyone else having the same difficulties and cant find anything, which probably means I’m missing something very obvious but cant think what. Any ideas? Cheers Teesea ---

Thanks to a chap I was chatting to in irc I’ve found what the problem was I had the default route before the named route so rails was taking this first and creating the cached files in [domain.com/home/about](http://domain.com/home/about) rather than in [About Us - Domain.com](http://domain.com/about.html)
