undefined method `confirmed_at=' for #<User:0x...>

[jan0sch]

Hi,

I created a rails project using ruby-1.9.2-head, rails 3 beta4 and
devise 1.1.rc2 and followed the instructions from the readme. When
visiting http://localhost:3000/users/sign_up I get the following error
message after filling out the form and sending it:

NoMethodError in Devise/registrationsController#create
undefined method `confirmed_at=' for #<User:0x0000000393d9a8>

Regards,

Jens

I just re-created a clean rails project and it works now. If I'm able
to reproduce the bug above I'll file a bug report.

I have just added :confirmable to an existing project. While the app
works fine, my Cucumber tests fail with:
undefined method `confirmed_at=' for #<User:0x1033a8730>
(NoMethodError)
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/
1.8/benchmark.rb:308:in `realtime'
./features/step_definitions/authentication_steps.rb:30:in `/^I sign up
as a new member$/'
features/authentication.feature:34:in `And I sign up as a new member'

Failing Scenarios:
cucumber features/authentication.feature:30 # Scenario: a Visitor
Signs Up

Has anyone else encountered this?

thanks,

ak

Newbie error: forgot to migrate test environment. Once that is done,
all is well again.

My apologies for the disturbance.

thanks,

That is because you have forgotten to uncomment t.confirmable in
initial devise migartion, in that case the
confirmable model does not know confirmed_at attribute and the
following method in device/model/confirmable.rb raises error.

# Generates a new random token for confirmation, and stores
the time
# this token is being generated
def generate_confirmation_token
self.confirmed_at = nil
self.confirmation_token = self.class.confirmation_token
self.confirmation_sent_at = Time.now.utc
end

Check your db/shema.rb to see if there is a confirmed_at field or not.

To solve this, you can re-create your devise model with correct
migration (as you did) or create another migration to modify current
devise model:

rails g migration addconfirmable

then change the migration file as follows: (account is my devise model
in this case, use yours instead)

def self.up
change_table(:accounts) do |t|
t.confirmable
end
end

rake db:migrate

It should work now.

also add unique index before end:
add_index :accounts, :confirmation_token, :unique => true
