Routing Error with Post/Put requests (Passenger Headers)

Question

I\'ve run into a weird problem and after a bunch of research can\'t get any closer. I\'ve got several forms that upload files via Carrierwave. When I upload the information,

One issue here is you're not specifying whether the route is defined on the collection or a member. Which one of these is the correct route?

programs/:id/add_file

programs/add_file

You should construct your routes like this:

resources :programs do
  post 'add_file', :on => :member
end

or

resources :programs do
  member do
    post 'add_file'
  end
end

The above will take post requests at programs/:id/add_file and send them to ProgramsController.add_file with the params[:id] as the program id.

If you want this on the collection, you could do:

resources :programs do
  post 'add_file', :on => :collection
end

or

resources :programs do
  collection do
    post 'add_file'
  end
end

This would take post requests at programs/add_file and send them to ProgramsController.add_file, but no params[:id] would be set.

In general you should always specify whether routes are on the collection or member, and you should specify which verb a route should accept (ie use 'get' or 'post' etc. instead of 'match').

Try the above and see if that solves your problem, if not please let me know and I'll take another look.
