Rails控制器response_to返回404

Question

I have a bunch of controllers in my rails app that return :html format. When I try to access the url using .js extension it returns Completed 406 Not Acceptable. Shouldn't the correct behaviour is to return 404?

Thanks

Answer 1

You would get a 404 error if your controller's action was able to respond to the JS request but the action.js.erb did not exist. Since your controller only allows a response to HTML , the 406 Not Acceptable error would be expected behavior.

Answer 2

If you want to handle JS requests, you'll have to have something like this:

respond_to do |format|
    format.js   
    format.html 
end

This will load the corresponding .js.erb or .html.erb files when that action is called. More information is available on the Rails API
