Rails 4.0 ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound - ruby-on-rails

Question

I am trying to learn Rails and am making my first app and am running into this error:
ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in PartsController#show
Couldn't find Part with id=new_ic
with the highlighted source:
def set_part
#part = Part.find(params[:id])
end
I am brand new to rails and i can't figure out what is wrong and I can't find any help online either. The app is a part management system for electronic components. The form gets filled out and the data is saved to the database for future reference/updating. Could someone please help?
Source code time:
parts/_ic_form.html.erb
<h1>Add An IC</h1>
<%= simple_form_for #parts do |f| %>
<%= f.input :component_type, :as => :hidden, :input_html => { :value => "IC"} %>
<%= f.input :ic_model, label: 'IC Model' %>
<%= f.input :ic_manufacturer, label: 'IC Manufacturer' %>
<%= f.input :ic_pinCount, label: 'IC Pin-Count' %>
<%= f.input :ic_mountType, collection: ["Through Hole", "Surface Mount"], label: 'IC Mount Type' %>
<%= f.input :ic_package, label: 'IC Package' %>
<%= f.input :ic_quantityOnHand, label: 'Quantity On Hand' %>
<%= f.input :ic_quantityOnOrder, label: 'Quantity On Order' %>
<%= f.button :submit %>
<% end %>
parts/new_ic.html.erb
<%= render 'ic_form' %>
parts/new.html.erb
<h1>New part</h1>
<%= link_to 'IC', 'new_ic' %>
<%= link_to 'Back', parts_path %>

end
private
# Use callbacks to share common setup or constraints between actions.
def set_part
#part = Part.find(params[:id])

# Never trust parameters from the scary internet, only allow the white list through.
def part_params
params[:part]
end
end
routes.rb Pretty sure i screwed this one up too
Pms::Application.routes.draw do
resources :parts
resources :parts
root to: "parts#new_ic"
end
rake routes Output:

Answer 1

One problem is in this line:
<%= link_to 'IC', 'new_ic' %>
link_to should look like this:
link_to "Profile", profile_path(#profile)
#Profile is the name
#profile_path(#profile) is the link
Try this instead:
#parts/new.html.erb
<%= link_to 'IC', root_path %>
in your routes, root GET / parts#new_ic is linking to your new_ic action. I'd disagree with the way you access it (via root) - but it will work if you want to access the new_ic action. Why is this your root route, though?
