RoR using Devise - Encrypted Password

Question

Hi pardon my ignorance but I'm new to RoR. My problem is that I'm trying to make my Devise gem work but when I fill out the information and click Sign-Up, I get this in return: "undefined method `encrypted_password=' for".

I've already tried rake db:migrate and also clearing the attributes in the User.rb model but still it doesn't work.

Please any guidance would be appreciated!

Answer 1

This most likely means, that you are missing on migrations. Are you sure, that you have setup devise right?

https://github.com/plataformatec/devise

rails generate devise:install
rails generate devise User
bundle exec rake db:migrate

Answer 2

In the rails console run, this will tell you if the migration has run

User.new.respond_to?(:encrypted_password=)

This should return true, if not do

bundle exec rake db:migrate:reset
