    copied!<p>OK. This is insane.</p> <p>I'm new to RoR and I really want to get into it as everything about it that I have seen so far makes it more appealing to the type of work that I do.</p> <p>However, I can't seem to accomplish a <em>very</em> simple thing with RoR.</p> <p>I want these controlers:</p> <pre><code>/admin/blog/entries (index/show/edit/delete) /admin/blog/categories (index/show/edit/delete) /admin/blog/comments (index/show/edit/delete) ... and so on </code></pre> <p>And these models:</p> <pre><code>Blog::Entry (table: blog_entries) Blog::Category (table: blog_categories) Blog::Comments (table: blog_comments) ... and so on </code></pre> <p>Now, I have already gone though quite a bit of misery to make this work. My first attempt was with generating scaffolding (I'm using 2.2.2). I generated my scaffolding, but had to move my model, then fix the references to the model in my controller (see <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/903258/ruby-on-rails-model-inside-namespace-cant-be-found-in-controller">Ruby on Rails model inside namespace can&#39;t be found in controller</a>).</p> <p>That is already a big of a pain, but hey, I got it to work. Now though form_for won't work and I cannot figure out how to use the url helpers (I have no idea what these are called... they are the automatically generated methods that return URLs to controllers associated with a model). I cannot figure out what their name is. My model is Blog::Entries. I have tried to mess with the route.rb's map's resource method, but no luck. When I attempt to use form_for with my model, I get this error </p> <pre><code>undefined method `blog_entries_path' for #&lt;ActionView::Base:0xb6848080&gt; </code></pre> <p>Now. This is really quite frustrating. I am not going to completely destroy my code's organization in order to use this framework, and if I cannot figure out how to accomplish this simple task (I have been researching this for at least 5 hours) then I simply cannot continue.</p> <p>Are there any ideas on how to accomplish this?</p> <p>Thanks</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong></p> <p>Here are my routes:</p> <pre><code> admin_blog_entries GET /admin_blog_entries {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"index"} formatted_admin_blog_entries GET /admin_blog_entries.:format {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"index"} POST /admin_blog_entries {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"create"} POST /admin_blog_entries.:format {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"create"} new_admin_blog_entry GET /admin_blog_entries/new {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"new"} formatted_new_admin_blog_entry GET /admin_blog_entries/new.:format {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"new"} edit_admin_blog_entry GET /admin_blog_entries/:id/edit {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"edit"} formatted_edit_admin_blog_entry GET /admin_blog_entries/:id/edit.:format {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"edit"} admin_blog_entry GET /admin_blog_entries/:id {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"show"} formatted_admin_blog_entry GET /admin_blog_entries/:id.:format {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"show"} PUT /admin_blog_entries/:id {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"update"} PUT /admin_blog_entries/:id.:format {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"update"} DELETE /admin_blog_entries/:id {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"destroy"} DELETE /admin_blog_entries/:id.:format {:controller=&gt;"admin_blog_entries", :action=&gt;"destroy"} home / {:action=&gt;"index", :controller=&gt;"index"} /:controller/:action/:id /:controller/:action/:id.:format </code></pre> <p>That dosn't look right. Here is my routes.rb (comments removed):</p> <pre><code>ActionController::Routing::Routes.draw do |map| map.resources :admin_blog_entries map.home '', :controller =&gt; 'index' map.connect ':controller/:action/:id' map.connect ':controller/:action/:id.:format' end </code></pre>
