json autocomplete wrong url in rails

I'm using jquery autocomplete on several places of my app, including in a form with url : 

http://www.fonsiuris.net/fr/administration/actes/nouveau/122

app/views/administration/actes form has this field:

<%= lieux.text_area :place, :value =>  params[:acte] ? @place["place"] : "", class:"field_places", data: {autocomplete_source: lieux_enum_path} %>

in routes.rb:

 get 'lieux/enum' => 'lieux#enum'

This is the very first url of my routes.rb

However, when I type letters in the text area, such as 'Dou' that has the autocomplete function, it points to this url : 

http://www.fonsiuris.net/fr/biblios/trouver?utf8=✓&ch_bib[aut_titre_cherche]=Douai&commit.x=6&commit.y=2&term=Dou

and when I type in more than one term, that term gets added to the url like this :

/fr/biblios/trouver?utf8=%E2%9C%93&ch_bib%5Baut_titre_cherche%5D=Douai&commit.x=5&commit.y=11&term=Paris

(both Douai and Paris are added as search terms)

It should point to this url:

http://www.fonsiuris.net/lieux/enum?term=Dou

Which gives the right result. I'm using the same code, with the same javascript in several places of my application and it's working fine on all other places !

The output of rails routes | grep enum is : 

                          lieux_enum GET    /lieux/enum(.:format)                                          lieux#enum
                       motclefs_enum GET    /motclefs/enum(.:format)                                       motclefs#enum
                 actes_enum_acte_mot GET    /actes/enum_acte_mot(.:format)                                 actes#enum_acte_mot
                    biblios_enum_rec GET    /biblios/enum_rec(.:format)                                    biblios#enum_rec
        administration_archives_enum GET    /administration/archives/enum(.:format)                        administration/archives#enum_archive
         administration_biblios_enum GET    (/:locale)/administration/biblios/enum(.:format)               administration/biblios#enum_titres {:locale=>/fr|en|nl|it/}
         administration_auteurs_enum GET    (/:locale)/administration/auteurs/enum(.:format)               administration/auteurs#enum_noms {:locale=>/fr|en|nl|it/}

What I have tried so far :

I don't know where to start looking to resolve this.

I'm going to provide a slightly more articulate answer based on what I garnered from @thiebo.

<%= lieux.text_area :place, :value =>  params[:acte] ? @place["place"] : "",
     class:"field_places", data: {autocomplete_source: lieux_enum_path} %>

This field appears twice with the same field name. Delete the field without the autocomplete member on the data attribute.

For the sake of posterity, the problem had nothing to do with rails, routes or jquery. I had put elsewhere in the form another field with the same class name as the field on which I put the autocomplete.
