in your routes.rb file, try wrapping your routes inside the scope block as the error message suggests. Here is an example:

devise_scope :user do
   get "signup", to: "devise/registrations#new"
   get "login", to: "devise/sessions#new"
   get "logout", to: "devise/sessions#destroy"
end

This will give you nicely named routes.

And by the way, if you are using Rails 4, get rid of the match method. you need to specify the HTTP verb.

devise_for :users, path_names: { sign_in: 'login', sign_out: 'logout', sign_up: 'signup' }

AND

match '/sessions/user', to: 'devise/sessions#create', via: :post
