Webrick RoutingError

Rails
1

problem: webrick will start a rails server, but I cannot access my
application. I get the error:

Processing Base#index (for 127.0.0.1 at Tue Mar 07 19:16:58 CET 2006)
Parameters: {}

ActionController::RoutingError (Recognition failed for
“/keywordeditor”):

my application is called keywordeditor. I am starting the server from
the correct place with the correct command (I already deployed several
rails apps successfully before).

I checked that the database is created with the correct tables. I ran
script/generate scaffold and got all the files correctly created.

Why is it not working?
Could it be a problem of rails version? I am trying out act_as_tree in
the model definition.

The complete error:

what happens if you leave off the keywordeditor? Likely you’ll get
the Welcome to Rails page. When you add the name after root it is
referring to the controller name, not the application name. Thus you
end up with something like:

http://localhost:3000/controller/action/id

If you just put up to the controller then the default action, index
will be used.

I hope that helps.
