Ruby on Rails Tutorial Chapter 8 Signup Success

I have written the Users controller and Spec tests correctly for the
“successful creation” in the User controller however I get the
following two errors:

1) UsersController POST 'create' success should create a user
    Failure/Error: lambda do
      count should have been changed by 1, but was changed by 0
    # ./spec/controllers/users_controller_spec.rb:95:in `block (4

levels) in <top (required)>’

 2) UsersController POST 'create' success should redirect to the

user show page
Failure/Error: response.should
redirect_to(user_path(assigns(:user)))
ActionController::RoutingError:
No route matches
{:action=>“show”, :controller=>“users”, :id=>#<User id: nil, name:
“New User”, email: “[email protected]”, created_at: nil, updated_at:
nil, encrypted_password: nil, salt: nil>}
# ./spec/controllers/users_controller_spec.rb:102:in `block (4
levels) in <top (required)>’

The test specs are as follows:

describe "success" do
   before (:each) do
       @attr = { :name => "New User" ,
                  :email => "[email protected]",
                  :password => "foobar",
                  :password_confirmation => "foobar"
                }
   end

   it  "should create a user" do
            lambda do
             post :create, :user => @attr
           end.should change(User, :count).by(1)
        end

   it  "should redirect to the user show page" do
             post :create, :user => @attr
             response.should

redirect_to(user_path(assigns(:user)))
end

   it "should have a welcome message" do
             post :create, :user => @attr
             flash[:success].should =~ /welcome to the sample app/

i
end

   end
end

The controller code is as follows:

class UsersController < ApplicationController
  def show
    @user = User.find(params[:id])
    @title = @user.name
  end

  def new
    @user  = User.new
    @title = "Sign Up"
  end

  def create
     @user = User.new(params[:user])
     if @user.save
       redirect_to @user, :flash => { :success => "Welcome to the

Sample App!" }
else
@title = “Sign up”
render ‘new’
end
end
end

I’m also getting one new error:

  1. UsersController POST ‘create’ success should have a welcome message

    Failure/Error: flash[:success].should =~ /welcome to the sample
    app/i
    expected: /welcome to the sample app/i
    got: nil (using =~)

    ./spec/controllers/users_controller_spec.rb:107:in `block (4

levels) in <top (required)>’

Here’s the user model code:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base

  attr_accessor :password

  attr_accessible :name, :email, :password, :password_confirmation

  email_regex = /\A[\w+\-.]+@[a-z\d\-.]+\.[a-z]+\z/i

  validates :name, :presence => true,
                   :length => {:maximum => 50}
  validates :email, :presence => true,
                    :format => {:with => email_regex},
                    :uniqueness => {:case_sensitive => false}
  validates :password, :presence => true,
                       :confirmation => true,
                       :length => {:within => 6..40}

  before_save :encrypt_password

  def has_password?(submitted_password)
    encrypted_password == encrypt(submitted_password)
  end

  class << self
    def authenticate(email, submitted_password)
      user = User.find_by_email(email)
      return nil if user.nil?
      return user if user.has_password?(submitted_password)
    end
  end

What’s going wrong?
