paths incorrect?

[keenahn]

Hi Gavin, great gem. Thanks for maintaining this. I'm using rails 3.2

I'm trying to add it to my existing project. I did the installation properly as detailed in the README. I have added

mount Blogit::Engine => "/blog", as: :blogit

to my routes.rb

When I go to "/blog" on my development server, the link to the "New Blog Post" is:

http://xxxx/blog/assets?action=new&controller=blogit%2Fposts and thus errors out

When I go to http://xxxx/blog/posts/new directly, I see the form, but the form action is

/blog/assets?controller=blogit%2Fposts

I think I'm not understanding something about mounting Engines and how they affect paths. Do you have any ideas? Thanks a lot

@keenahn very unusual - which version of Rails and Blogit are you using?

[keenahn]

blogit (0.8.0)
rails (3.2.17)

I tried removing everything from my routes file except for that, and it did the same thing.

Can you paste the relevant parts of the output from
$ rake routes

[keenahn]

Hey, thanks a lot Gavin. I really appreciate your help! It's not that many people who would be so responsive on an open source gem :)

@keenahn Sorry, I lost track of this issue.

Did you ever resolve it?

[rperez14]

I am having this issue as well :-(

[archonic]

I'm having exactly the same issue (6 years later!) but with a completely different gem (Blazer). Sorry to revive a dead thread but does anyone know why engine routes output /assets?action=new&controller=...?

[Bodacious]

@archonic Can you please provide the following:

• Output of bundle list
• Contents of your routes.rb file
• Output of rails routes

Thanks!
