Couldn't find User with id=search

I want to a searching function for users. It does not work. So I simplified the method, I just want to refresh the index page when I hit the search button. But it still does not work, it said ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in UsersController#show, Couldn't find User with id=search.

please tell me Why

my controller

class UsersController < ApplicationController   
     load_and_authorize_resource    :except => [:index]


 def search
    redirect_to users_path   
 end


end

My view

   <%= form_tag users_search_path, :method => 'get' do %>

  <td><%= text_field_tag :username, params[:username] %></td>

  <%= submit_tag "Search", :class => "buttons buttons-rounded buttons-flat-action", :id => "button-new"%>

  <br><br><br>
  <% end %>

My Route

  Procedures::Application.routes.draw do

  devise_for :users


  #### USER MANAGEMENT ####
  resources :users do
  resources :rateofpays # professional timesheet
  resources :roles
  resources :biographies
  resources :qualifications do
    collection do
      put  'complete', :action => 'complete'
    end
  end
  resources :supervisors

  end
 #### users search ####
  get 'users/search' => "users#search", as: 'users_search'

The line

  get 'users/search' => "users#search", as: 'users_search'

...is too far down in your routes. the resources :users appears first, and it has a match path that looks like users/:id and the users/search is incorrectly matching against that.

Just move the get 'users/search' to the top... or alternatively define it as a collection method under resources :users

resources :users do 
  collection do
    get 'search'
  end
