Rails 2.3.2 trying to render ERB instead of HAML

Question

Rails is suddenly trying to render ERB instead of Haml and I can't figure out why. I've created new rails projects, reinstalled Haml, and reinstalled Rails. Here's exactly the steps I take when making my application (Rails 2.3.2): ``` rails> rails test rails> cd test rails	est> haml --rails . rails	est> ruby script\generate model user email:string password:string rails	est> ruby script\generate controller users index rails	est> rake db:migrate ``` Here's what the UsersController looks like: ``` class UsersController < ApplicationController def index @users = User.all end end ``` My routes: ``` ActionController::Routing::Routes.draw do |map| map.resources :users end ``` I now create views\users\index.html.haml: ``` %table %th(style="text-align: left;") %h1 Users - for user in @users %tr %td= user.email %td= user.password ``` Annnd run the server... I navigate to localhost:3000\users and I get this error message: ``` Template is missing Missing template users/index.erb in view path…

Accepted Answer

Hi it seem like haml is not enabled as Rails plugin ,in order to enable it use the following command .

Go to your application folder from the command prompt type the following

```
  $ cd ..
  $ haml --rails <yourproject>
```

if this doesnot work try installing haml gem with the following code

```
$ gem install haml
```

I tried with above example , it did work for me ,i have haml gem installed in my ubuntu system .

Good luck !

NOTE: "haml --rails" was deprecated in HAML 3.1
