Making POST request after redirect :back fails
Reported by Nicolas Blanco | November 11th, 2008 @ 05:08 PM | in 0.5
When I try to click a link with a POST method after a redirect :back it fails with an exception "Only post requests are allowed. (ActionController::MethodNotAllowed)".
Reproduce it :
routes.rb :
map.resource :session, :member => { :blabla => :post }
In the sessions/new view :
<%= link_to "blabla", blabla_session_path(:id => 1), :method => :post %>
In the SessionsController :
def blabla
redirect :back
end
The Webrat test :
visits "/session/new"
clicks_link "blabla"
clicks_link "blabla"
The first click succeeds, the second click fails with an exception
"Only post requests are allowed.
(ActionController::MethodNotAllowed)".
Thanks,
Nicolas.

I verified that this is a bug and I wanted to try a new experiment.
I created a toy rails app at git://github.com/gaffo/webrat_rails_bugs.git
Master is supposed to be a baselined version of rails with webrat, so it's easy to start from there.
There's also a branch called lh_31 which replicates this bug.
The theory being that it'll be much easier to identify bugs if you can swap right to a test app to see it. Let me know if this makes sense or is interesting. I find it a pain in the a** to recreate bugs continually from posts so I thought it was worthwhile.

Hey Mike --
Would it be possible for you to take the branch that demonstrates the bug in that repo and convert it to a branch with changes to our shiny new integration spec suite?
That would make it a bit easier for me to dive in and get this resolved.
Thanks,
-Bryan
