Strange routing(?) Issue

Rails
1

I have a Model event and the following two lines in routes.rb

1 - map.connect “events/:action”, :controller => ‘events’, :action => /
[a-z_]+/i
2 - map.resources :events, :has_many => :comments, :has_one
=> :address #, :collection => {:mapit => :get}

I have #1 so that I can call custom actions from a link_to_remote link
from my index page t0 update a div.

<%= link_to_remote “Map”, :method => “get”, :url => {:action =>
“mapit”, :controller => “events”} %>

Please see controller and rake routes output below.

Here is the problem,

With both #1 and #2 line in routes.rb active, if I click the Map link
nothing happens,
I get a 404 ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in EventsController#mapit

Couldn't find Event without an ID
AND when I create a new

event i just get redirected back to events index page, no record gets
saved.

If I uncomment the regular event route i.e. #1, then I still get the
same error with the map link but now I can create and save new event
records.

Any ideas?

the events controller

def mapit
# render :text => “asit”
respond_to do
format.js {
render :update do |page|
page.replace_html “div_map”, “

Map here

”
end
}
end 
end

def new
    @event = Event.new
    address = @event.build_address
    respond_to do |format|
        format.html # new.html.erb
        format.xml  { render :xml => @event }
    end
end

# GET /events/1/edit
def edit
    @event = Event.find(params[:id])

end

def create
    @event = Event.new(params[:event])
    #        @event.address = Address.new(params[:address])
    #        @event.address.cr
    @event.user_id = current_user.id;
    respond_to do |format|
        if @event.save
            flash[:notice] = 'Event was successfully created.'
            format.html { redirect_to(@event) }
            format.xml  { render :xml => @event, :status

=> :created, :location => @event }
else
format.html { render :action => “new” }
format.xml { render :xml => @event.errors, :status
=> :unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end
