I am brand new to Ruby on Rails and I have been trying to get a simple default route set up and working. When I try to run my application I get a blank result (if I do a view source, there is nothing there).
Here are the relevant files (not sure if I am missing something that would be useful).
app/config/routes.rb
Blog::Application.routes.draw do
root :to => "home#index"
end
app/views/home/index.html.erb
<h1>Home#index</h1>
<p>Find me in app/views/home/index.html.erb</p>
app/controllers/home_controller.rb
class HomeController < ApplicationController
def index
end
end
app/views/layouts/application.html.erb
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Benji</title>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag :all %>
<%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %>
<%= csrf_meta_tag %>
</head>
<body>
<%= yield %>
</body>
</html>
When I try to run my application, I go to http://localhost:3000 and nothing shows up. If I do a view source, it is empty.
If do rake routes this is the result:
JESSE-GAVINs-MacBook-Pro-17:benji jesse$ rake routes
(in /Users/jesse/Dev/benji)
root /(.:format) {:action=>"index", :controller=>"home"}
JESSE-GAVINs-MacBook-Pro-17:benji jesse$
In my development.log file I see this:
Started GET "/" for 127.0.0.1 at Tue Sep 07 10:44:10 -0500 2010
Processing by HomeController#index as HTML
Rendered home/index.html.erb within layouts/application (2.8ms)
Completed 200 OK in 15ms (Views: 14.7ms | ActiveRecord: 0.0ms)
What could be the issue? How do I go about solving this?
