Ruby on Rails Problem

I'm working on { Build a Simple Ruby on Rails Application => Designing URLs => Creating Custom Routes }

I'm stucked when try to add custom route for register and login url:

ActionController::RoutingError at /register uninitialized constant Devise::RegistrationController

block in constantize activesupport (3.2.13) lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb

I tried to find solution on the internet but nothing works out yet.

Can you paste what you are putting in your routes.rb file? Hard to give advice if I can't see what you've entered. Often times it's a simple typo.

I'm with Brandon. It can be hard to fix something like this when you can't see the exact code. Wish I could be more help.

Thank your for your reply:

Treebook::Application.routes.draw do
  devise_for :users

devise_scope :user do
    get "register", to: 'devise/registration#new', as: :register
    get "login", to: 'devise/session#new', as: :login
  end

  resources :statuses
  root to: 'statuses#index'

Only thing that I can see different between yours and mine for the class is that you use double quotes after the get where I use single. Maybe that is where your problem stemming from.

Solved. Noted that the :controller should be in plural =>

devise_scope :user do
    get "register", to: 'devise/registrations#new', as: :register
    get "login", to: 'devise/sessions#new', as: :login
  end

Way to solve your problem Hanif! Controllers in Rails are generally plural.
