Creating a PUT request in Ruby on Rails?

I want to be able to use a PUT request to edit the title of a song I uploaded in my Ruby on Rails application.

def update
   @sound_byte = SoundByte.find(params[:id]) #Error here
   @sound_byte.update!(sound_byte_params)
   flash[:success] = "The soundbyte title was changed."
   redirect_to sound_byte_path
end

private

def sound_byte_params
    params.require(:sound_byte).permit(:mpeg, :mpeg_file_name)
end

I end up getting an error like this:

Couldn't find SoundByte with 'id'=song_name

Any ideas of how to fix this issue? I am using the Paperclip gem to enable the audio/mpeg file uploads.

EDIT: Here is my views code

<%= link_to "Edit", sound_byte_path(sound_byte.mpeg_file_name), class: "btn btn-primary btn-lg btn-xlarge", :method => :put %>

In the view page, you pass string sound_byte.mpeg_file_name as params, but in your controller, you use id @sound_byte = SoundByte.find(params[:id]).

Try this

<%= link_to "Edit", sound_byte_path(sound_byte.id), class: "btn btn-primary btn-lg btn-xlarge", :method => :put %>
