Rails creating malformed routes with dots - ruby-on-rails

Question

I'm using the path helper methods to generate URLs in link_to, and they are returning URLs formated like this :
http://localhost:3000/tweets.4
when I was expecting them to be formated like this:
http://localhost:3000/tweets/4
Note how it is using a dot as the delimiter instead of the expected forward slash. The top link doesn't resolve to the correct view, it simply reloads the /tweets view. When I manually edit the URL to be like the bottom, it opens the correct /tweets/show/.
The closest thing I found in my online research was that people encountered this with wrongly nested routing statements - but I don't think I'm doing that here.
I would appreciate any help or pointers anyone can provide!
Here are the related source files and version information :
tweets/index.html.erb
<h1>Listing tweets</h1>
<% #tweets.each do |tweet| %>
<div>
<!-- creates path in format of /tweets.2 -->
<div><%= link_to tweet.status, tweets_path(tweet) %></div>
<!-- creates path in the format of /user.1 -->
<div><%= link_to tweet.user.name, users_path(tweet.user) %></div>
</div>
<% end %>
tweets_controller.rb
class TweetsController < ApplicationController
def index
#tweets = Tweet.all
end
def show
#tweet = Tweet.find(params[:id])
end
def new
#tweet = Tweet.new
end
def create
#tweet = Tweet.new(params[:tweet])
#tweet.user = User.last
if(#tweet.save)
redirect_to :root
end
end
def edit
#tweet = Tweet.find(params[:id])
end
def delete
end
end
routes.rb
Zombietweets::Application.routes.draw do
resources :tweets
root :to => 'tweets#index'
end
Gemfile
source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'rails', '3.2.9'
group :development, :test do
gem 'sqlite3', '1.3.5'
gem 'rspec-rails', '2.11.0'
end
group :assets do
gem 'sass-rails', '3.2.3'
gem 'coffee-rails', '3.2.1'
gem 'uglifier', '1.0.3'
end
gem 'jquery-rails', '2.0.2'
I'm using Rails 3.2.9 and Ruby 1.9.3p327 (2012-11-10) [x86_64-darwin12.2.0]

Answer 1

Have you tried tweet_path and user_path ?
You want to access the show action. For that action, the model name must be singular in the *_path call.
To be sure, try a rake routes in a console.
EDIT:
You also forget to add resources :users in your routes file :)
