Exception in devise/sessions_controller when calling warden.authenticate!

[Kenton Newby]

I have an app with two users.  Using devise for auth.

----------

Problem

----------  

One user can login just fine.  One user always gets an "invalid email or password" error.

----------

My Setup

----------  

I'm using pry to drop into a session here:

https://github.com/plataformatec/devise/blob/master/app/controllers/devise/sessions_controller.rb#L15

With the "working" user, I can call warden.authenticate!(auth_options) manually at this point and I get back the user I expect.

With the "failing" user, calling the same method on warden raises an exception.

When I look at the "working" warden object, I can see it has an @user instance variable set to the user I'm expecting.

On my "failing" warden object, @user = nil.

I don't know enough about warden yet to figure out what's going on here...looking into it.  

But I figured I'd post here as well since someone may be able to shed some light on this.

So what's going on here?  Why does that warden object have a nil @user?  It's like @user isn't getting set at some point in the request...so where does that happe?  Or am I thinking about this all wrong?

Thanks

OK,

have you tried and set a new user and see if you can login with that? are you sure you using the right credentials? the way to see it is, example:

1. username/email: "email"

password: "password"

2. Use the hash function on "password" and compare to the value saved on the database.

if its the same, then probably something else is wrong with your user.
