Salty logins

I’ve gotten a quick prototype of Beyond up even faster than I expected. It’s the bare minimum, but it works, and wow, Ruby on Rails really is as cool as I thought it was. :) Did I really just get it up as fast as that? Incredible.

And now a bone to pick. I’ve tried to install both the salted_login and the Login Engine, and I don’t know why I’m plagued with so much trouble, but neither one works. It’s getting really frustrating. When I try to login with the engine, for example, I get “undefined method ‘password_confirmation=’ for #“. I suspect the engine isn’t really starting after all. But I haven’t a clue how to fix that. ~sigh~ I’ve followed the instructions exactly — several times over! — and yet nothing. But I really don’t want to write my own login code. Hmm…

Well, I’ve struggled with it long enough today. Tomorrow I’ll press on.

remove all the user model and user controller from your app directory (via script/destroy) and try again :)

Thanks Znouza!

That fixed the same problem I have been struggling with for the last 6 hours.
