This has been asked many times before, but nothing that I've tried has worked, and I've been trying to resolve it for two days now.
I'm trying to migrate my app to rails 3.1 because I'm starting to use backbone and coffeescript and figured it made sense to just upgrade the whole thing.
I've followed the railscast, been through tons of blogs, etc. etc. No luck, at the point I'm not even trying to load the backbone pages, jquery itself isn't being loaded.
I try to navigate to localhost:3000/assets and get No route matches [GET] "/assets"
the output of Rails.application.config.assets.paths is
["/media/sf_Ruby192/mysite/app/assets/images", "/media/sf_Ruby192/mysite/app/assets/javascripts", "/media/sf_Ruby192/mysite/vendor/assets/javascripts", "/home/pete/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/cocoon-1.0.15/app/assets/javascripts", "/home/pete/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/formtastic-2.0.2/app/assets/stylesheets", "/home/pete/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/jquery-rails-1.0.19/vendor/assets/javascripts", "/home/pete/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/admin_data-1.1.16/app/assets/images", "/home/pete/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/admin_data-1.1.16/app/assets/javascripts", "/home/pete/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/admin_data-1.1.16/app/assets/stylesheets"]
So this leads me to believe that the assets paths are set-up correctly.
Any suggestions here? I am running this in a virtualbox on windows, hence the path from root being /media/sf_Ruby192, which is the path on windows.
The manifest file is
//= require jquery //= require jquery_ujs //= require_self //= require_tree .
