Ruby on rails error with log in

Question

I changed some things in my files and when a user is being created instead of going to user/1 it is going to user.1. Any idea why this is happening? Below is print of log extract. Thanks,

Started GET "/user.113" for 95.45.98.59 at 2016-04-18 23:39:53 +0000

If you're using a route helper method, and you want to route to the url for a specific resource, make sure you call resource_path(resource) and not resources_path(resource) . Note the singular/plural distinction in the route method.

If I understand your question correctly, your controller should look something like this;

class UsersController < ApplicationConroller
  # ... 

  def create
    # Create the user...
    if @user.valid?
      redirect_to user_path(@user)  # redirects to `show` action
    else
      render :new   # There are errors, so render the form with errors
    end
  end

  # ...
end
