Routing error with webrat

Hello

I am starting using cucumber with an app using restful_authentication.
I am having an error that is driving me mad.

I am using this step

Given /^que he hecho login en la aplicación$/ do
user = User.create!(
:login => “mi_login”,
:name => “mi_nombre”,
:email => “[email protected]”,
:password => ‘supersecret’,
:password_confirmation => ‘supersecret’ )

User.find_by_login(“mi_login”).should_not be_nil

visit login_path
fill_in :login, :with => user.login
fill_in :password, :with => ‘supersecret’
click_button “Log in”
response.body.should =~ /Logged/m
end

The problem is with the sentence click_button “Log in”,
I have the standar new.html.erb template created by the
restful_authentication plugin

==== new.html.erb ===========

Log In

<% form_tag session_path do -%>

<%= label_tag 'login' %>
<%= text_field_tag 'login', @login %>

<%= label_tag 'password' %>
<%= password_field_tag 'password', nil %>

<%= submit_tag 'Log in' %>

<% end -%>

===========================

Everything in routes.rb is standar

map.logout ‘/logout’, :controller => ‘sessions’, :action => ‘destroy’
map.login ‘/login’, :controller => ‘sessions’, :action => ‘new’
map.register ‘/register’, :controller => ‘users’, :action => ‘create’
map.signup ‘/signup’, :controller => ‘users’, :action => ‘new’
map.resources :users
map.resource :session

An the error says something about routing:

No route matches “/” with {:method=>:get}
(ActionController::RoutingError)

that occurs when clicking the button.

I have put the error here, in http://pastie.org/345420.

Can somebody give me some light.

Thanks.

The error you’re getting seems to suggest that rails can’t find a
route defined for a GET request to “/” which is the homepage of your
app. I assume this is where the resful authentication plugin wants to
redirect you after logging you in.

When you set up your routes, did you remember to put in a route for
the homepage?

e.g. map.root :controller => “home”, :action => “index”

Thanks Matt.
You were right,
I have modified routes.rb with mapping root url but I did’t understand
why this is needed.

The create action in sessions controller is completely standar.
The sentence that is causing the error
redirect_back_or_default(’/’)

is not using thr root_url.
I think this is a bug, but I don’t know.

Cheers and many thanks.

I think this is a bug, but I don’t know.
Well, I see all more clear now.
I thought it was a bug because I thought it was failing only when
running the feature, and it worked without problem hitting the
application with the browser.
But this was not true.
It worked because I had index.html in /public folder , when I removed
it, I has the same error.
