Checkbox "NoMethodError" in rails - ruby-on-rails

I'm writing a CMS and I faced a problem while making a role management for users. I have a boolean field :admin in my User model, and I've made a checkbox in my form to set created user as an administrator. Here is the users_controller:
def create
#user = User.create(user_params)
respond_to do |format|
if #user.save
format.html { redirect_to users_path }
format.json { head :no_content }
else
format.html { render :new }
format.json { render #user.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end
def edit
end
def update
respond_to do |format|
if #user.update(user_params)
format.html { redirect_to users_path }
format.json { head :no_content }
else
format.html { render :edit }
format.json { render #user.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end
and this is my form :
<%= form_for #user do |f| %>
# Here go fields for username, email and password
<p>
<%= f.label "Set as administrator" %> <br />
<%= f.hidden_field :admin, '' %>
# I also tried with <%= f.hidden_field :admin, false %>
<%= f.check_box :admin, checked = true %>
# Or <%= f.check_box :admin, data: { switch: true } %>
</p>
<% end %>
But any of these options returns me the following:
NoMethodError in Multiflora::Users#edit
undefined method `merge' for "":String
What have I done wrong?

Take hidden field as
<%= f.hidden_field :admin, value: '' %>, or simply
<%= f.hidden_field :admin %>
and checkbox as <%= f.check_box :admin, :checked => true %>
<%= form_for #user do |f| %>
# Here go fields for username, email and password
<p>
<%= f.label "Set as administrator" %> <br />
<%= f.hidden_field :admin, value: '' %>/<%= f.hidden_field :admin %>
<%= f.check_box :admin, :checked => true %>
</p>
<% end %>

What's wrong with association with user and emergency contact?

I am working on authentication part. Also, I am new to rails view part.
Here, I am trying to signup with required field but I am getting error message which is due to association between user and emergency contact. Can anyone suggest how to resolve it? Thanks in advance.

end
end
If I click save with the Remove Avatar box checked, it literally does nothing to the avatar, if I go back to any page that displayed the avatar, it is still there. What am I doing wrong? I am using Ruby on Rails 5.0.1
Side note: I am aware of some of the deprecated things that are being used here, such as before_filter. I am working with a large group of people so not all of this code is mine, fixing it is not priority at the moment.

undefined local variable or method `user' for #<UsersController:0x0000000570eef0>

I'm new to rails and I'm trying to create a form in two parts. First, you fill in the user form. Then you choose to become a prestataire or a employeur. And by clicking on the respective button, the user form will be saved, and you will be redirected either to the prestataire's form or the employeur's with the recently created user params.
Until now, I didn't manage to send the recently created user params, only saving and redirecting. But then I get this error in the prestataire_controller, since prestataire belong to user. The error is similar when I click on the employeur button:
undefined local variable or method 'user' for #<UsersController:0x0000000570eef0>
format.json { render action: 'show', status: :created, location: #user }
else
format.html { redirect_to new_user_prestataire_path(user_id: user), notice: "Renseignez vos informations de prestataire" } #This is sublined
format.json { render action: 'show', status: :created, location: #user }
end

I was thinking about adding an onclik option on the f.submit and adding an adequate method. But I read somewhere that f.submit was not the best option for this kind of request, but no other suggestion was made. Thanks in advance for your help.
As I said,the error is because it should be #user in this line of your create action
format.html { redirect_to new_user_prestataire_path(user_id: #user), notice: "Renseignez vos informations de prestataire" }
And also,you haven't initialized #user in your update action which may rise in another error in future.Add this line at the beginning of your update action
#user = User.find(params[:id])
You are not defining your #user object on update. Try:
def update
#user = User.find(params[:id])
respond_to do |format|
if #user.update(user_params)
if params[:commit] == 'employeur'
format.html { redirect_to new_user_employeur_path, notice: 'User was successfully updated.' }
format.json { head :no_content }
else
format.html { redirect_to new_user_prestataire_path, notice: "User was successfully updated." }

end
else

format.json { render json: #user.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity }

Been fighting with this for a few hours. Any ideas?
You are making all of your controller action methods private which means they can't be called as actions. See the end of the Methods and Actions section of the ActionController Rails Guide.

Rails 3.2 - Nested Resource Passing ID

Okay so my associations are:
Outlet -> has_many :monitorings
Monitoring -> belongs_to :outlet
My Routes:
resources :outlets do
resources :monitorings
end
View:
<%= link_to new_outlet_monitoring_path(#outlet) %>
When I click the link, the logs show that the outlet_id is passed as a parameter to the new page correctly.
But when saving the monitoring record, the outlet_id becomes nil.
Any help?
UPDATE:
# views/monitorings/_form.html.erb
<%= form_for(#monitoring) do |f| %>
<h2>Type of Monitoring</h2>
<fieldset data-role="controlgroup" >
<div class="radio-group">
<%= f.radio_button :mtype, "Full" %><%= f.label :mtype, "Full", value: "Full" %>
<%= f.radio_button :mtype, "Partial" %><%= f.label :mtype, "Partial", value: "Partial" %>
<%= f.radio_button :mtype, "None" %><%= f.label :mtype, "None", value: "None" %>
</div>
</fieldset>
<hr>
<%= f.submit "Next Step" %>
<% end %>
And the controller:
# controllers/monitoring_controller.rb
def new
#monitoring = Monitoring.new
respond_to do |format|
format.html # new.html.erb
format.json { render json: #monitoring }
end
end
def create
#monitoring = Monitoring.new(params[:monitoring])
respond_to do |format|
if #monitoring.save
format.html { redirect_to #monitoring, notice: 'Monitoring was successfully created.' }
format.json { render json: #monitoring, status: :created, location: #monitoring }
else
format.html { render action: "new" }
format.json { render json: #monitoring.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end
This is most likely an issue with the way you are creating the new monitoring record. Can we see your form and your create controller action?
