I just upgraded to 2.1 and attempted to log in to my application and when this line is reached in my login action: ``` redirect_to(index_url) ``` I get the error “wrong number of arguments (0 for 1)” [stack trace below]. Here’s my route: ``` map.index 'index', :controller => 'e_simply', :action => 'index' ``` I found this very lengthy discussion on lighthouse about this bug: [http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/22-default\_url\_options-is-being-ignored-by-named-route-optimisation](http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/22-default_url_options-is-being-ignored-by-named-route-optimisation) I assume that this got fixed or no one would be able to use named routes. What am I missing here?

Jeremy, Thanks - I just got there independently by reading [http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10925](http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10925) Funnily enough, I’m not even using the body of that default\_url\_options method. Sigh. Thanks, Wes ---

Why can’t the call to default\_url\_options pass an empty hash instead of requiring that the developer make the options parameter optional? Wes
