users_controller.rb

class UsersController < ApplicationController
before_action :authenticate_user!
before_action :set_user

def show
    
end

def friend
    current_user.sent_follow_request_to(@user)
    redirect_to root_path
end

def unfriend
    current_user.unfollow(@user)
    @user.unfollow(current_user)
    redirect_to root_path
end

def accept

CodePudding user response：

The problem is your root route:

root 'users#show'

You've defined your root web page, that is what will show up when the user requests /, as when they go to http://localhost:3000. It's set to the page which shows a specific user. This requires a User ID to do its job. But there is no ID provided.

Pick something else for your root page. users#index for example. Or your registration and sign on page. See the Devise docs for setting that up.
