devise sign_in after sign_out error

Question

I have a little problem with devise. After signing out, when i fill up "signing in" form first time it writes a validation error

You need to sign in or sign up before continuing.

but when i am submitting form second time i don't have any errors. And signs in successfully.

I do sign out using link

<%= link_to "Sign out", destroy_user_session_path, :method => :delete %>

also, after signing up, it redirects me on signing in form and writes validation error:

You need to sign in or sign up before continuing.

but entering the same again it works fine

what I am doing wrong? Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

You need to sign in or sign up before continuing.

This error message is cause from authenticate_user! in controller.

I think your redirection have sent you to some where that have the method

before_filter: authenticate_user!

For the after you sign_out by default devise will redirect you to root_path . See this link for detail for redirection after sign out.

And for the after sign_up devise will redirection you to root_path or the path that you want to go. See this link for after signup redirection.

I hope this might help where you miss in your code.

Try to check your root in route file.
