Delete/Destroy method doesn't work anymore? (Rails)

Question

I'm encountering a very strange problem: my delete actions in rails don't work anymore.

Even if I create everything by the scaffold command, every click on delete just sends me to the show view of the object, which should be deleted.

script/generate scaffold myitem description:text

This isn't only in one project, but extends to new projects I create. Any idea, where this is coming from? Or better: Any idea how to fix this?

(the only thing I can think of, is that some plugin broke my installation, I installed paperclip, but don't know how to uninstall it: where are my plugins?)

I've seen this before (because I had the same problem). Perhaps this could help you:

You should be able to look in the log file to see what SQL is being generated for the delete, and what error it is being generated.

Actually the problem was probably Firefox. When I clicked on Answer you own question here on Stackoverflow, I had the very same problem: My request, wasn't processed properly. I was sent back to the normal question view, without having the ability to submit my own answer.

So after a restart of Firefox everything worked fine.

(I also reinstalled Ruby and Rails at the same time, so I can't be sure, if it was Firefox for sure).
