Ruby On Rails throws error on home - railties

When I try my page i.e, localhost:3000/home - it shows this error.

enter image description here

This is the error thrown in the console:

ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches [GET] "/home"):
  web-console (2.0.0.beta3) lib/action_dispatch/debug_exceptions.rb:22:in `middleware_call'

I think there is some problem with the railties. But I am not sure what it is?

content of my routes.rb :

Rails.application.routes.draw do
  get 'static_pages/home'
  get 'static_pages/help'
end
Solution

  • You should define your route like this:

    get 'home' => 'static_pages#home'

    or:

    root 'static_pages#home'

    If you want to make it root path for your application.
