Your HTML is invalid, the submit button is actually not nested under the form tag. Try changing your view code to this:

  

    <%= form_for @problem do |f| %>
      Name
      <%= f.text_field :name, placeholder: "Name your problem!" %>
      

        <%= f.text_field :url, placeholder: "Link to any supporting material" %>
      
      

        <%= f.text_area :description %>
      
      

        <%= f.submit "Create" %>
      
    <% end %>
