How do I force a certain URL after a Rails redirect?

By Hường Hana 10:30 AM , , , Leave a Comment

I’m using Rails 4.2.3. I have the following in the create method of my controller

    format.html { redirect_to controller: "my_objects", action: "index", notice: 'Saved successfully.' }

However when I redirect, the URL is actually

http://mydomein.devbox.com:3000/my_objects

and I want it to be

http://mydomein.devbox.com:3000/my_objects/index

How can I force the URL to be “/index” instead of what its appearing as now?

Edit: Here are the logs when visiting /my_objects/index:

Started GET "/my_objects/index" for 127.0.0.1 at 2016-07-12 12:17:25 -0500 Processing by MyObjectsController#index as HTML DEPRECATION WARNING: Passing a nested array to Active Record finder methods is deprecated and will be removed.

Edit: Here is the relevant portion from the config/routes.rb file …

  get 'my_objects/index'   get 'my_objects/create'   resources :my_objects do     collection do       post 'create'       get 'import'       get 'index' => 'my_objects/index'       get 'search'       get 'stats'     end   end

The redirected URL by rails convention is redirecting to the index action. Check your logs to see what happening. If you do /my_objects/index, you're telling rails you want the my_object with ID = index.

Can you please post your routes.rb because there you can specify how you get a route like this:

get 'my_objects/index' => 'my_objects#index'

and then in the controller you just do a

redirect_to my_objects

In the routes change this line

get "index" => "my_object#index"

To

get "index" => "my_object#index", as: :my_object_index

Then redirect to that path

redirect_to my_object_index_path, notice: "saved successfully"
