You'll have to at least show the relevant parts of your config/ 
routes.rb file to get any decent help. As it is, the post_url doesn't  
appear to be set up to expect your user_id and post_id properly.  If  
you look closely, you'll see that :user_id is associated to a Post  
object which is probably wrong.
