Rails: Access model from different controller

I know this question been ask before and they said 'models are independent of the controller.' So, following my same code I did for other models I just renamed my working code to fit to my new model. But I'm getting an error undefined method 'userimages_path' Here the code I'm using.

The model is userimage and the controller is uploads.

Controller/uploads_controller.rb

  def new
    @userimage = Userimage.new
  end


Model/userimage.rb is an empty file

Views/uploads/new.html.erb (This line is throwing the error.)

  <%= form_for @userimage do |f|%>

In my routes.rb

resources :uploads

I have rake db:migrate several times to make sure I did migrate the database thinking this might be why it can't find the Userimage.

What I have I done wrong/missing here?

It is a Rails magic, when you don't specify second option(url) for form_for, Rails try to set it, in your case <%= form_for @userimage do |f|%> converts by Rails to <%= form_for @userimage, url: userimages_path do |f|%>, in your routes, there is no such _path helper. To resolve this issue run bundle rake routes and set the right url option.

Check the documentation

try below code:

 <%= form_for @userimage, url: "/uploads" do |f|%>

uploads controller

def create
  ...
end
