Weird issue with my rails path and its routing

Question

I'm getting a strange error with my routing. I've installed the blogit gem but I don't think this is causing this problem.

undefined local variable or method `locations_path'

Here is my routes file:

AppName::Application.routes.draw do


devise_for :users

root :to => 'locations#index'


mount Blogit::Engine => "/blog", :as => "blog" 



resources :locations do
  collection do
  get 'location'
 end
end

and here's my rake routes:

       new_user_session GET    /users/sign_in(.:format)       devise/sessions#new
        user_session POST   /users/sign_in(.:format)       devise/sessions#create
destroy_user_session DELETE /users/sign_out(.:format)      devise/sessions#destroy
       user_password POST   /users/password(.:format)      devise/passwords#create
   new_user_password GET    /users/password/new(.:format)  devise/passwords#new
   edit_user_password GET    /users/password/edit(.:format) devise/passwords#edit
                     PUT    /users/password(.:format)      devise/passwords#update
 cancel_user_registration GET    /users/cancel(.:format)            devise/registrations#cancel

    user_registration POST   /users(.:format)               devise/registrations#create
new_user_registration GET    /users/sign_up(.:format)       devise/registrations#new

                     PUT    /users(.:format)               devise/registrations#update
                     DELETE /users(.:format)               devise/registrations#destroy


                root        /                              locations#index
                blog        /blog                          Blogit::Engine
  location_locations GET    /locations/location(.:format)  locations#location
           locations GET    /locations(.:format)           locations#index
                     POST   /locations(.:format)           locations#create
        new_location GET    /locations/new(.:format)       locations#new
       edit_location GET    /locations/:id/edit(.:format)  locations#edit
            location GET    /locations/:id(.:format)       locations#show
                     PUT    /locations/:id(.:format)       locations#update
                     DELETE /locations/:id(.:format)       locations#destroy

Routes for Blogit::Engine:
                     /posts/page/:page(.:format)            blogit/posts#index
   tagged_blog_posts        /posts/tagged/:tag(.:format)           blogit/posts#tagged

         PUT    /posts/:id(.:format)                   blogit/posts#update
              DELETE /posts/:id(.:format)                   blogit/posts#destroy
   root        /                                      blogit/posts#index

Any suggestions as to why this may be happening would be great.

Thanks,
