I keep getting this error every time I point my browser to “account\/sign_out” (GET request):<\/p>\n

Unknown action, Could not find devise mapping for path \"\/accounts\/sign_out\"\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Here’s my route for devise:<\/p>\n
devise_for :accounts, :controllers => { :registrations => :accounts  }\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
It must be something trivial, but I don’t get it. Documentation says devise already provides an action for signing out and binds it to this exact route “\/accounts\/sign_out”. Please share with me what am I doing wrong?<\/p>\n
The output of rake routes<\/code> shows that the action is mapped:<\/p>\n
destroy_account_session GET   \/accounts\/sign_out(.:format)   {:action=>\"destroy\", :controller=>\"devise\/sessions\"}\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
    \n

    The problem was that in routes.rb I also had resources :accounts<\/code> route declared before devise_for<\/code>. Therefore, the solution turned out to be to put it after the devise_for<\/code> declaration:<\/p>\n
    devise_for :accounts, :controllers => { :registrations => :accounts  }\nresources :accounts\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
