Ruby pluralizing the controller in route

I am new to ruby world and following tutorials to create a simple application. I am having a problem to create a form. I followed this link: What is the Rails3 equivalent of start_form_tag?

but I am getting undefined method people_path for #<#<Class:0x287c670>:0x2879370>

my controller is Persons and I have this in route file: resource :persons

so probably ruby is trying to pluralize the Persons. I have no idea how to fix this issue and google search also does not seem t开发者_运维技巧o be helping.

Instead of resource :persons try this:

resources :people

And your controller would be PeopleController
