when creating a new controller the file name of the controller has to be the same as the controller itself and it can be either xxxxx_controller or just xxxxxx

For example

mytest_controller.rb – ok

mytest.rb – ok

mytest_co.rb – not ok

also make sure you add ::BASE after the class name definition or you will get a horrifying error… well not horrifying but at least not the result you are expecting.

As always, this applies to WINXP – LAMP – ROR installation
