From the show.html.erb page I want to create a copy of the record on that page and be sent to the new.html.erb page. Rails dup method does that (and doesn't have and id or creation date), but I can't figure out how to get there.
The error I'm currently getting is this: Couldn't find Street with 'id'= pointing at the @street = Street.find(params[:id]).dup line in the streets_controller.rb. (This page has been updated with fixes to some of the problems I had. Thank you commenters.)
Part of my show.edit.erb page:
<p>
<strong>Previous Street Name:</strong>
<%= @street.previous_name %>
</p>
<p>
<strong>‘Current/Next’ Street Name:</strong>
<%= @street.current_name %>
</p>
<p>
<strong>Earliest Date for ‘Previous’ Name:</strong>
<%= @street.date_earliest %>
</p>
<p>
<strong>Latest Date for ‘Previous’ Name: </strong>
<%= @street.date_latest %>
</p>
<p>
<strong>Entry covers from cross street to cross street or similar:</strong>
<%= @street.cross_streets %>
</p>
<p>
<strong>Approximate Number of Blocks:</strong>
<%= @street.number_of_blocks %>
</p>
<p>
<strong>Length of segment:</strong>
<%= @street.extent_length.round(2) %> miles

Seems like this would be a common request, but searching here and elsewhere and looking in my several Rails books; I only find things about Rails 2 or 3, and they don't go quite for enough for me to understand how to make that work in Rails 5. To reiterate the current error is: Couldn't find Street with 'id'= and the following from better_errors:
