Hi Sergio,

That code looks right for me, so maybe the actual partial file is missing.

Do you have the file /app/views/line_items/_line_item.text.erb ?
And that file should have the following content:

<%= sprintf("%2d x %s",
            line_item.quantity,
            truncate(line_item.product.title, :length => 50)) %> 

Cheers,
a.

hey Augusto thanks for the reply.

well i just fixed my problem, but i didn’t figure out what happend there. i just made up everything again and this time worked. it’ll be a mistery to me.

and yes, that file was there and was good… i don’t really understand what went wrong.

I have to say that twice, while I was coding the examples, rails started to behave very oddly, it was like it wasn’t picking up the changes (I’m sure I saved the files) and after a few minutes or a server restart it would start working again.
The changes didn’t include any configuration file, just an html.erb, model or controller.

I think it’s just a matter of timing it right and to know when to restart the server.

Hi

I had the same error at the h1 step. I copy paste the order_received view. And because of this line <%= render @order.line_items %> I have this error :

Missing partial line_items/line_item with {:locale=>[:en], :handlers=>[:rxml, :builder, :erb, :rjs, :rhtml], :formats=>[:text]} in view paths "/Users/spacemeli/Documents/projets/depot/app/views"

Everything was working before this step.
Any ideas ?

Thanks a lot
Melissa

Sorry this is the complete error :

I was missing the partial too. It is called /app/views/line_items/_line_item.html.erb —(not .text.erb).

Thanks!

I had the same error. The mistake I made was to name my partial view “_line_item.txt.erb” instead of the correct “_line_item.text.erb”. When I renamed the partial view to have the correct name, everything worked just fine.

Thank you Teddy! That was my error also!
