    copied!<p>EDIT:</p> <p>Got too confusing with so many different edits, so this is where I'm currently at.</p> <p>I have a HTTPService in my Flex 4 app defined as follows:</p> <pre><code>&lt;s:HTTPService id="getUserDetails" url="http://localhost:3000/users/getDetails" method="GET"/&gt; </code></pre> <p>I call this service like this (note: I've checked the network monitor in Flash Builder 4 and the userNameLookup variable is sent correctly):</p> <pre><code>var userNameLookup:String; userNameLookup = calleeInput.text; getUserDetails.send(userNameLookup); </code></pre> <p>And finally, this is the Ruby on Rails method:</p> <pre><code>def getDetails @user = User.find_by_username(:userNameLookup) render :xml =&gt; @user end </code></pre> <p>This is the error message in the log:</p> <blockquote> <p>Processing UsersController#getDetails (for 127.0.0.1 at 2010-04-27 19:24:23) [GET] User Load (0.2ms) SELECT * FROM "users" WHERE ("users"."username" = '--- :userNameLookup ') LIMIT 1</p> <p>ActionView::MissingTemplate (Missing template users/getDetails.erb in view path app/views):<br> app/controllers/users_controller.rb:33:in <code>getDetails'<br> app/controllers/users_controller.rb:32:in </code>getDetails'<br> /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/httpserver.rb:104:in <code>service'<br> /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/httpserver.rb:65:in </code>run'<br> /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:173:in <code>start_thread'<br> /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:162:in </code>start'<br> /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:162:in <code>start_thread'<br> /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:95:in </code>start'<br> /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:92:in <code>each'<br> /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:92:in </code>start'<br> /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:23:in <code>start'<br> /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/server.rb:82:in </code>start'</p> </blockquote> <p>So it appears that the userNameLookup parameter isn't being referred to correctly? Just a thought, but does it matter that I've set the HTTPService to GET even though it is posting something?</p>
