Undefined method error

Hello everyone,

          I am following the Practical Rails: Social Networking

sites book. In chapter 7 photo gallery I am getting a

NoMethodError in Pages#show

Showing layouts/_menu.rhtml where line #12 raised:

undefined method `new_entry_path’ for #ActionView::Base:0x52fa56c

Extracted source (around line #12):

9: <% if is_logged_in? %>
10:

  • Logged in as: <%= logged_in_user.username %>

  • 11:
  • <%= link_to ‘My Profile’, edit_user_path(logged_in_user)
    %>

  • 12:
  • <%= link_to ‘New Blog Post’, new_entry_path(:user_id =>
    logged_in_user) -%>

  • 13:
  • <%= link_to ‘Upload Photo’, user_new_photo_path(:user_id
    => logged_in_user) -%>

  • 14:
  • <%= link_to ‘Logout’, {:controller => ‘account’, :action
    => ‘logout’}, :method => :post %>

  • 15: <% else %>

    I am using rails 2.0.2 over windows vista. Can someone please explain
    me whats wrong?

    Do you have a controller named entries? Do you have a route set up for
    it:

    map.resources :entries

    Ya I have a ‘entries_controller.rb’ where index, new create, edit and
    destroy are defined. and in routes.rb

    map.resources :articles, :collection => {:admin => :get}

    map.resources :users, :member => { :enable => :put } do |users|
    users.resources :roles
    users.resources :entries do |entry|
    entry.resources :comments
    end
    users.resources :photos, :name_prefix => ‘user_’, :controller =>
    ‘user_photos’
    end
    map.resources :articles, :collection => {:admin => :get}

    This is the ‘entries’ in config.rb. I am creating a new blog post that
    is entry…

    You’re doing map.resources :articles yet you’re trying to do
    new_entry_path.
    Try new_article_path instead.

    Um, in that case it’s new_user_entry_path because entries is nested
    inside
    users. also it should be |user| not |users|.

    Have a read of this:

    I’m sorry for the late reply…I am still getting the same error.

    <% if is_logged_in? %>

  • Logged in as: <%= logged_in_user.username %>

  • <%= link_to ‘My Profile’, edit_user_path(logged_in_user) %></
    li>
  • <%= link_to ‘New Blog Post’, new_entry_path(:user_id =>
    logged_in_user) -%>

  • <%= link_to ‘Upload Photo’, user_new_photo_path(:user_id =>
    logged_in_user) -%>

  • <%= link_to ‘Logout’, {:controller => ‘account’, :action =>
    ‘logout’}, :method => :post %>

  • <% else %>
  • <%= link_to ‘Signup’, :controller => ‘users’, :action => ‘new’
    %>

  • <%= link_to ‘Login’, :controller => ‘account’, :action =>
    ‘login’ %>

  • <% end %>

    When I try to reach the page without logging I am able to see the
    localhost:3000/photos and index. But when I login and the above block
    of code gets executed I am getting the error.
    undefined method `new_entry_path’ for #ActionView::Base:0x50d9f6c

    Because you’re STILL calling new_entry_path when I told you it should be
    new_user_entry_path(@user)

    either that or define map.resources :entries inside of your
    routes.rboutside of the user block.
