ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in ArticlesController#edit - ruby-on-rails

I am getting an error when trying to edit an Article. Here is my error:
ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in ArticlesController#edit
articles.controller.rb
class ArticlesController < ApplicationController
def new
#article = Article.new
end
def edit
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
end
def create
#article = Article.new(article_params)
if #article.save
flash[:notice] = "Article was successfully created"
redirect_to article_path(#article)
else
render 'new'
end
end
def update
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
if #article.update
flash[:notice] = "Article was successfully updated"
redirect_to article_path(#article)
else
render 'edit'
end
end
def show
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
end

You will need to pass the #article into the url. You should have a url similar to this:
<%= link_to "Edit Article", edit_article_path(#article) %>
Also be sure to check your database and make sure that an Article is actually saving. I don't see your article_params but I assume they are defined as you are using them in your create method.
Your routes.rb looks something like this:
Rails.application.routes.draw do
resources :articles
end

NameError in ArticlesController#create undefined local variable or method `article_params' for #<ArticlesController:Did you mean? article_path

I am getting this error when I create my articles:
error: NameError in ArticlesController#create
undefined local variable or method `article_params' for # Did you mean? article_path
image of error :
my code :
class ArticlesController < ApplicationController
def new
#article = Article.new
end
def create
#article = Article.new(article_params)
if #article.save
flash[:notice] = "Article was submitted succsefully"
redirect_to (#article)
else
render :new
end
private
def article_params
params.require(:article).permit(:title, :description)
end
end
end
put article params outside of create
class ArticlesController < ApplicationController
def new
#article = Article.new
end
def create
#article = Article.new(article_params)
if #article.save
flash[:notice] = "Article was submitted succsefully"
redirect_to (#article)
else
render :new
end
end
# this is show method
def show
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
end
private
def article_params
params.require(:article).permit(:title, :description)
end
end
I think the create action was not properly closed,therefore you have the article_params method inside the create action,delete the 'end' at the last line and add an 'end' to the create action,its a syntax error. like this
class ArticlesController < ApplicationController
def new
#article = Article.new
end
def create
#article = Article.new(article_params)
if #article.save
flash[:notice] = "Article was submitted succsefully"
redirect_to (#article)
else
render :new
end
end
private
def article_params
params.require(:article).permit(:title, :description)
end
end

Ruby on Rails #article.id and#article.category_id keep getting switched

Can someone tell me why id and category_id keep getting switched in Rails?? im losing my mind! the console says its correctly but when i get an error it shows that params switches it around. This my controller below:
class ArticlesController < ApplicationController
def new
#article = Article.new
#category = Category.find(params[:category_id])
end
def create
#article = Article.new(articles_params)
#category = Category.find(params[:category_id])
# binding.pry
#article.category_id = #category.id
binding.pry
if #article.save
redirect_to category_path(#category)
else
render :new
end
end
def edit
#category = Category.find(params[:category_id])
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
end
def update
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
#category = Category.find(params[:category_id])
if #article.update(articles_params)
redirect_to category_path(#category)
else
render :edit
end
end
def destroy
# binding.pry
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
#article.destroy
redirect_to category_path(#category)
end
private
def articles_params
params.require(:article).permit(:title, :body)
end
end
Everything looks fine.
Look below on the request parameters from your screenshot:
{
"id" : 1,
"category_id" : 2
}
You are looking for id 1 in the context of your Article controller.
1 refers to the article with id 1.
Meanwhile you are looking for a Category with id 2 (category_id 2).
Category.find(params[:category_id])
The error is saying that it cannot find a Category object with id 2.
The 2 comes from your request. If something is wrong, it's in your request creation.

value always the same, different in database Rails

This is my ArticleController
def new
#article = Article.new
end
def create
#render plain: params[:article].inspect
#article = Article.new(super_params)
if #article.save
flash[:notice] = "Article has been created"
redirect_to article_path(#article)
else
render 'new'
end
end
def super_params
params.require(:article).permit(:title, :description)
end
def show
#article = Article.find_by( params[:id] )
end
The main problem is that whenever i do: articles/2 or 5 or 6 i get the same article which was created as first. In database records are good i have only this problem with render it.
I know, i did:
find_by
Instead of
find
Sory for trouble...

ForbiddenAttributesError with Active Admin

I 've just started working on ROR.
I made blog app following strictly ROR official doc.
It worked fine for CRDU.
Now I added Active Admin to it, it works fine on delete but gives error while creatiing/updating focusing on
raise ActiveModel::ForbiddenAttributesError
def sanitize_for_mass_assignment(attributes)
if attributes.respond_to?(:permitted?) && !attributes.permitted?
**raise ActiveModel::ForbiddenAttributesError**
else
attributes
end
In Controller, I'm using following code:
def create
#article = Article.new(article_params)
if #article.save
redirect_to #article
else
render 'new'
end
end
def update
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
if #article.update(article_params)
redirect_to #article
else
render 'edit'
end
end
def destroy
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
#article.destroy
redirect_to articles_path
end
private
def article_params
params.require(:article).permit(:title, :text, :AuthorAge)
end
I think you didn't add permit_params in your active admin file.
# app/admin/xyz.rb
permit_params :comma separated attributes.
Look into this link for more detail.

Rails: param is missing or the value is empty: article

I am new with Rails and I began to make a web app following the rubyonrails.org tutorial.
My app is a blog with articles.. I implemented create and edit functions which worked pretty well but suddenly an error while trying to access http://localhost:3000/articles/2/edit in order to edit an article.
The error is ActionController::ParameterMissing in ArticlesController#edit param is missing or the value is empty: articles
Here is my ruby code:
class ArticlesController < ApplicationController
def index
#articles = Article.all
end
def new
#article = Article.new
end
def edit
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
if #article.update(article_params)
redirect_to #article
else
render 'edit'
end
end
def show
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
end
def create
#article = Article.new(article_params)
if #article.save
redirect_to #article
else
render 'new'
end
end
private
def article_params
params.require(:article).permit(:title, :text)
end
end
The line targeted by the error alert is params.require(:articles).permit(:title, :text)
I really don't know where the error can be because everything was ok 2 minutes ago...
Thank you for your help
You are trying to update the article in the edit method. So when you navigate to "articles/2/edit/" it tries to update the article 2. But you did not pass any params.
I think what you probably want is:
def edit
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
end
def update
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
if #article.update(article_params)
redirect_to #article
else
render 'edit'
end
end
I know is late, but i hope this solution help someone. Add to ArticleController these two methods:
def edit
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
end
and
def update
#article = Article.find(params[:id])
if #article.update(article_params)
redirect_to #article
else
render 'edit'
end
end
