Ruby on Rails 4 Routing

Question

I want to have to url /pc/group/1 point to views/groups/show.html.erb. I'm not sure how to do this. I tried the following:

namespace :pc do
    resources :groups
end

resources :pc

But it results in can't find the page.

What's the real message the server puts out? Perhaps your controller/action doesn't exists or your view is not available. EDIT: Please type rake routes in your terminal. The real route for this routes.rb should be /pc/groups/1 — Nick Schmidt

You'd tell the route which controller and action to use in this situation:

namespace :pc, controller: 'groups' do
    resources :groups
end

resources :pc

Note that doing it this way, all routes for /pc/groups will point to the GroupsController, not just show.

I have the following with rake routes: pc_group GET /pc/groups/:id(.:format) pc/groups#show However, when I go to the page it result in a page not found.

What is 'rat' in the above route?

Right, that's because your route shows the controller it's looking for is Pc::Groups#show, not Groups#show.

I have the following in my development.log: ActionController::RoutingError (uninitialized constant Pc::GroupsController), How can I fix it?

Exactly, because your route is looking for Pg::GroupsController but you only have a GroupsController - the Pg in the former is the namespace in your routes. Have you tried my change?
