Route not recognized in rails3 application

I was tinkering with this a few days ago and it seemed to be working. But now I went back to this application setup and I can't seem to get to the home page with

http://localhost:3000

Here is my routes.rb configuration 

  devise_for :users

  resources :home
  get "home/index"

  resources :formats
  get "formats/index" #display all formats

root :to => "home#index"

Any idea why I am getting the error that the route is not recognized?

Thanks!

When having routing problems, always check the output of rake routes to be sure it's listed correctly. Generally the correct way to route the / path is using the root method as you've done there.

The second thing to check is that you're connecting to the correct application. You may have more than one instance of rails server running on different ports.

Make sure that you're seeing updates to log/development.log when you make your request.
