Hello,

I just upgraded my app to Rails 1.2.2.  
My routes are :

map.with\_options :path\_prefix =\> “/admin”, :name\_prefix =\> “admin\_” do  
|m|  
m.resources :requests, :controller =\> “admin/requests”, :collection  
=\> {  
:destroy =\> :delete, :search =\> :post } do |request|  
request.resources :histories, :path\_prefix =\>  
“/admin/requests/:request\_id”, :name\_prefix =\> “admin\_”, :controller =\>  
“admin/histories”  
end  
end

I got this error :  
admin\_destroy\_requests\_url failed to generate from {:action=\>“destroy”,  
:controller=\>“admin/requests”}, expected: {:action=\>“destroy”,  
:id=\>/[^/;.,?]+/, :controller=\>“admin/requests”}, diff:  
{:id=\>/[^/;.,?]+/}

From this piece of code  
\<% form\_for(:request, :url =\> admin\_destroy\_requests\_path, :html =\> {  
:method =\> :delete, :id =\> :adminDeleteForm, :name =\> :adminDeleteForm  
}) do  
|f| %\>

If I switch my app back to 1.2.1, everything works fine.  
Any idea?

Thanks in advance,  
Thomas.

I’ve seen the exact same error, looks like a regression in Rails

Rick O. gave me the solution.  
#destroy is a reserved word.  
I changed to trash.  
Works like a charm.  
Happy again ;o)
