Nested route issue: "No route matches [GET] "/questions/6/responses" - ruby-on-rails

I'm a rails beginner struggling with routes a bit. I'm working on a Q&A site (or question and response) and any time I try to post a response, it gives the following error:
No route matches [GET] "/questions/6/responses"
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Jon

Responses controller

You have only route to create action in ResponsesController. If you also want route to index, you should have:
resources :responses, only: [:create, :index]
If you want routes to all default resources actions, you should abandon only option, like this:
resources :responses

form_for helper gives me an Error missing a param allthough its there

I have a problem with the form_for Helper in Rails. I want to edit a Post in my Forum app
I am getting this error when trying to call the edit page:
ActionView::Template::Error (No route matches
{:action=>"show",
:category=>#<Post id: 1,
user_id: 1,
title: "Die Webseite ist nun online",
body: "<div>Viel Spaß euch allen. Und haltet euch an die ...",
category: "general/announcements",
slug: "die-webseite-ist-nun-online",
created_at: "2018-09-16 01:00:55",
updated_at: "2018-09-16 01:00:55">,
:controller=>"posts",
:id=>"die-webseite-ist-nun-online",
:locale=>:de},
possible unmatched constraints: [:category]):
This is my Edit action:
def edit
#post = Post.find(params[:id])
end
And this is the call to form_for
<%= form_for(#post) do |f| %>
What I have tried:
<%= form_for(#post, category: params[:category]) do |f| %>
params[:category] has the right value, I tested it to not be empty or nil
Providing the category param like that did NOT change the error I get!

change nested resources param

I am trying to change the param in my nested resource but for some reason it add the name of the parent resource
routes.rb
resources :users, path: 're', param: :username do
resource :profile
end
this is how my routes are looking right now

How can I change /re/:user_username/profile/new(.:format) for /re/:username/profile/new(.:format)

Username in urls - Ruby on Rails

I am working on a project which includes signup, login and users can post articles. However I want to include username of the user in article url. So I did like this in routes.rb
scope '/:username' do
resources :articles, :path => '/status', only: [:create, :destroy, :show]
end
Now when I open project index which shows all articles, I am getting this error.
No route matches {:action=>"create", :controller=>"articles"} missing required keys: [:username]
Am I doing something wrong?

Here is the output of rake routes

Here is the code of routes.rb

root 'static_pages#home'
get 'help' => 'static_pages#help'
get 'signup' => 'users#new'
get 'login' => 'sessions#new'
post 'login' => 'sessions#create'
delete 'logout' => 'sessions#destroy'
resources :users, shallow: true do
resources :articles
end
end
Although having really short URLs may be attractive you should not use a wildcard at the "lowest level" of your url schema - unless your application only really deals with a single type of resource. Adding a wildcard at the bottom level in your urls causes huge headaches since it will swallow every other route unless great care is taken.
I would really recommend that you use /users/:username/articles.
resources :users, shallow: true do
resources :articles
end
This is a better restful design and it means that you do not have to blacklist usernames against a list of the other urls (and future urls) needed in your application.

I have a search page and a search button on it, and when I click on the search button, it gave me an error below:
No route matches [POST] "/searching"
And I want that when I click on the search button, It goes into the search page, and show result of search. below is search page controller:
def search
#students=Students.all
#blah = params[:tf_Zip]
puts #blah
if ( !params[:tf_Zip].blank? or params[:tf_Zip] !="" )
#user_zip = User.where(user_Zip: params[:tf_zip])
end
render 'search'
end
You can see above that I am render here to the search page, and below is routes.rb page:
resources :search, only: [:search, :create]
match '/searching', to: 'search#search', via: 'get'

try this one, as you're sending your form with POST

Tests say no routes match, but they work in browser

For my test I have the following:
test "should update holder" do
holder = Holder.create(name: "name", user_id: 10)
put :update, holder: holder
assert_redirected_to holder_path(assigns(:holder))
end
And when I run them I get the following Error:

If you look at rake routes, there clearly is a an action for update, which is a put, in the holders controller, which is what my test is doing, right?
Notice that the route is actually PUT /holders/:id, but you're passing a :holder option to your put method, not an :id. Try changing that line in your test to this:
put :update, id: holder
