Missing Template Rails

Question

When I run my code on Cloud9 IDE, the next error appears:

Missing partial submissions/_submission with {:locale=>[:en], :formats=>[:html], :variants=>[], :handlers=>[:erb, :builder, :raw, :ruby, :coffee, :jbuilder]}. Searched in: * "/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-2.3.0/gems/web-console-2.0.0.beta3/lib/action_dispatch/templates" * "/home/ubuntu/workspace/app/views" * "/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-2.3.0/gems/web-console-2.0.0.beta3/app/views"

I have a Submissions Controller and my create code is like this:

def create
 @submission = Submission.new(submission_params)

 respond_to do |format|
  if @submission.save
    format.html { redirect_to root_path}
    format.json { render :show, status: :created, location: @submission }
  else
    format.html { render :new }
    format.json { render json: @submission.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity }
  end
 end
end

I don't know which is my error and where to locate it.

`Missing partial submissions/_submission` - as your error says you are missing partial `_submission.html.erb` . Where you have used it and what is the path to partial ? — dp7, Apr 25 '16 at 09:52
@dkp What do you mean by _submission.html.erb? I do not have that file, I have some files which names are _form, edit, index, show and new .html.erb — avm_69, Apr 25 '16 at 09:57
Please check your views, there might be some place where you are rendering `_submission.html.erb` partial. It would be better if you can add your relevant view which is getting rendered here. — dp7, Apr 25 '16 at 10:09
@dkp There is no reference to _submission.html.erb in /views/submissions. The most likely thing is this line of code — avm_69, Apr 25 '16 at 10:18
`submissions/index.html.erb` - please add this view code to your question. — dp7, Apr 25 '16 at 10:39
`` - This line of code is causing the problem. Why you have added html comment here ? If you want to comment this line of code, you should do `<%#= render @submissions %>` — dp7, Apr 25 '16 at 10:47
It is not my code, just recieved it. Why is it wrong to have that line here? Is it supposed to be in another part of the code or I just comment it and everything should work fine? — avm_69, Apr 25 '16 at 10:50
It depends on your requirement. If you need to render that partial, then add the `_submissions.html.erb` to `views/submissions/` path and make use of partial. If you just don't need it now, comment it out . — dp7, Apr 25 '16 at 11:08

Though the line is commented in HTML, the server tag is still being executed. Try to comment the server tag with <%#= link_to 'New Submission', new_submission_path %>. This will stop executing the server tag and you will not get the error.

Replace that with ``. Note the hash tag(#). – Sambit Apr 25 '16 at 10:46
That is what whas wrong. Is this line supposed to appear in another part of the code or it is out of context and I erase it and everything will be fine? Thank you! :) – avm_69 Apr 25 '16 at 10:51

This line of code is causing the problem.

<!--<%= render @submissions %>--> 
#<!-- --> This is used to comment an HTML tag

If you do not want to render the partial you can simply comment that out as follows:

<%#= render @submissions %>
#<%# %> This is the way to comment embedded ruby code
