Error Missing parameter in call definition: String

Question

I'm new with play 2.0. I created a signup form and now I try to create a search form. But I was caught by this error: " Missing parameter in call definition: String In /home/thangnk/Task/conf/routes at line 17. " .

Here is my code :

CONTROLLER --- Search.java

package controllers;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

import models.Task;
import play.*;
import play.data.Form;
import play.db.ebean.Model.Finder;
import play.mvc.*;

import views.html.*;

public class Search extends Controller{
    static Form<Task> myform = form(Task.class);
    public static Result search(){
        return ok(search.render());
    }
    public static Result searchByusername(String username){
        Form<Task> filledForm = myform.bindFromRequest();
        username=filledForm.get().username;
        return ok(result_search.render(username));
    }   
}

MODELS --- Task.java

package models;

import java.util.*;

import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.Id;

import play.data.validation.Constraints.Email;
import play.data.validation.Constraints.MaxLength;
import play.data.validation.Constraints.MinLength;
import play.data.validation.Constraints.Required;
import play.db.ebean.Model;
import play.db.ebean.Model.Finder;

@Entity
public class Task extends Model {
    @Id
    public static Long id;

    //  @Required
    //  @MinLength(6)
    //  @MaxLength(12)
    public String password;

    @Email
    public String email;

    //  @MinLength(6)
    public String username;

    public Task() {
    }

    public Task(Long id, String username, String email, String password) {
        this.email = email;
        this.username = username;
        this.id = id;
        this.password = password;
    }

    public static Finder<Long, Task> find = new Finder(Long.class, Task.class);

    public static List<Task> all() {
        return find.all();
    }

    public static void create(Task task) {
        task.save();
    }

    public static void delete(Long id) {
        find.ref(id).delete();
    }

    public static List<Task> searchByusername(String name) {
        return find.where().like("username", "%" + name + "%").findList();
    }
}

It's in your routes file, you inverted the parameter name and type:

 POST   /result_search/:username      controllers.Search.searchByusername(username:String)
