Started GET "/user/populate_form&emp_id=BILL" for 127.0.0.1 at 2015-03-23 17:39:17 -0400
AbstractController::ActionNotFound (The action 'show' could not be found for UserController):
This is my User controller
class UserController < ApplicationController
def populate_form
@visual = Visual.find_by_id(params[:emp_id])
render :json => {
:emp_first_name => @emp_first_name
}
end
end
def show
@visual = Visual.find_by_id(params[:emp_id])
render :json => {
:emp_first_name => @emp_first_name
}
end
end
This is my view..
<div class='row form-group'>
<div class='col-xs-8 col-xs-offset-2 col-sm-6 col-sm-offset-3 col-md-4 col-md-offset-4 col-lg-2 col-lg-offset-5 text-right'>
<%= f.text_field :emp_id, tabindex: 1, id: 'emp_id', autofocus: true, placeholder: t( 'login_label' ), class: 'form-control' %>
</div>
</div>
<div class='row form-group'>
<div class='col-xs-8 col-xs-offset-2 col-sm-6 col-sm-offset-3 col-md-4 col-md-offset-4 col-lg-2 col-lg-offset-5 text-right'>
<%= f.text_field :emp_first_name, tabindex: 1, id: 'emp_first_name', autofocus: true, placeholder: t( 'login_label' ), class: 'form-control' %>
</div>
</div>
This is my app.js
$('#emp_id').change(function() {
var url = '/users/populate_form/';
$.getJSON(url, function(data) {
if(!(data.emp_first_name === undefined))
$('#emp_first_name').val(data.emp_first_name);
});
}
);
});
This is my routes
Rails.application.routes.draw do
devise_for :users, controllers: { sessions: 'sessions' }
root to: 'entry#index'
resources :entry do
end
resources :user do
collection do
get :populate_form
end
end
# Routes for API calls only.
namespace :api do
end
end
Extra this is what I get when I rake my routes

It might be a bit confusing, but let's go through it together!
You have routes configured like this:
resources :user do
collection do
get :populate_form
end
end
You've been expecting to visit some URL, to call proper action in your controller - populate_form
, but for some reason it tries to route your request to show
.
Let's check how your URL loos like:
/user/populate_form&emp_id=BILL
This causes the whole request to "fall" into route recognised as:
user GET /user/:id
which corresponds to show
action. Whole string "populate_form&emp_id=BILL" falls into params[:id]
in your show
action. Why didn't it use proper action? We've been expecting to reach populate_form
!
Try changing the URL you're visiting slightly from:
/user/populate_form&emp_id=BILL
to:
/user/populate_form?emp_id=BILL
This is easy change, but it should solve your problem!
Hope that helps!
