Try to run rake routes and double check you have the correct route name. And it doesn't look like you allowing the user_id in your strong params. Try changing to:

def forum_post_params
  params.require(:forum_post).permit(:body, :user_id)
end

And I'm not 100% positive but I'm pretty sure you don't have to reset the user in your edit method since you're assigning it when it's created. Might cause an issue if someone other than the original user tries to edit the post.
Hope this helps. :)

I eventually got it working, I just called the controller and passed (@forum_thread, forum_post)
