RoR Beginner Routing error

I've created a DB and a table within that DB called genre.

Now when I try to connect to this using the URL, I get the following error message:

Routing Error

No route matches "/genre" with 开发者_运维技巧{:method=>:get}

Thanks for your help in advance.

I think that /genre should be /genres

I just wrote an app from scratch to work with genres and this is my routes file:

ActionController::Routing::Routes.draw do |map|
  map.resources :genres

  # these last two lines should go away but I left them in
  # here because my example worked as is.
  map.connect ':controller/:action/:id'
  map.connect ':controller/:action/:id.:format'
end

So you would want to make sure that you are using the pural form of the noun genre.

Also rake routes is a great way to see what your routes are setup as.

As @Jens Fahnenbruck said, you need to set up your route in config/routes.rb.

If you want to find out what routes exist on your app, type rake routes into the command line.
