Response to: Nice concept but no worky (routing)
I am using ruby version 1.8.4 and Rails version 1.1.4 running on Linux 2.6.8-022stab067.1-smp and I have this same problem. Has anyone found a fix for this yet? It's such a short demo (up to this point) I can't imagine more people aren't having this issue.

Showing messages 1 through 4 of 4.

  I am having the exact same problem. The server is running fine, but things break while following the "Controllers and URL" section. BTW, when I try to load the URL http://127.0.0.1:3000/garbage/ as instructed in the tutorial, I get the message
  "Routing Error
  Recognition failed for "/garbage/" "
  
  Instead of the expected
  " Not Found
  '/garbage/' not found

  WEBrick 1.3.1 "...
  
  I am using ruby 1.8.4 on x86-64 linux.
  Any ideas ?

  You have to be very careful about case here.
  Using "http://127.0.0.1:3000/mytest/" works for me. The ruby command was
  "ruby script/generate controller Mytest"
  Note that the controller "Mytest" translates to an all lowerc ase "mytest" in the URL.

  In recent versions of Rails there have changed the error message. This is, in fact, the error that you should not receive.

  Boy, did I screw up that response!
  
  It should have said that this is, in fact, the error message that you *should* receive.
