I need to encrypt passwords for storage in the db and then decrypt them for use
later. I just generated a sandbox app to try the Sentry gem which looks perfect
for this. But I''m getting this error when I access the app:
undefined method `generates_crypted'' for Filepassword:Class
I''ve got the gem installed.
------ Filepassword.rb contains ---------
class Filepassword < ActiveRecord::Base
generates_crypted :password, :mode => :symmetric
end
--------- create.rb (the scaffolded controller) contains --------
class CreateController < ApplicationController
require ''sentry''
def index
list
render :action => ''list''
end
# etc... it''s all just scaffolding right now
end
----- environment.rb contains ---------
require ''sentry''
Sentry::SymmetricSentry.default_key = "secret_password"
-------- the SQL script contains ---------
drop table if exists filepasswords;
create table filepasswords (
id int not null auto_increment,
password varchar(50) null,
status varchar(7) null default '''',
primary key (id)
) engine=InnoDB;
I''m running Rails 1.2.2 via Instant Rails 1.5
Anybody with any experience with the Sentry gem see something obvious? It looks
like exactly what I need at the moment, if I could just get it to work.
Thanks,
Bill

I suppose I should just take those rubyforge projects down then. -- Rick Olson http://lighthouseapp.com http://weblog.techno-weenie.net http://mephistoblog.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Patches are welcome if you find it needs a little freshening up to still look appealing next to the young, hip rails 1.2 plugins. -- Rick Olson http://lighthouseapp.com http://weblog.techno-weenie.net http://mephistoblog.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

problem with Sentry plugin (was: problem with Sentry gem)
I uninstalled the Sentry gem and installed the Sentry plugin. After creating a database named sentry_plugin_test, I tried to run the tests using: C:\InstantRails-1.5\rails_apps\sandbox>rake test DB=mysql --trace and am getting: (in C:/InstantRails-1.5/rails_apps/sandbox) rake aborted! no such file to load -- sentry C:/InstantRails-1.5/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require'' C:/InstantRails-1.5/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `require'' C:/InstantRails-1.5/rails_apps/sandbox/config/../vendor/plugins/sentry/tasks/sentry.rake:1 C:/InstantRails-1.5/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.2.2/lib/tasks/rails.rb:8:in `load'' .... I found this ticket on Trac from a year ago: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/3451 In part, the description reads: "I ran across this after installing the sentry plugin (that''s why technoweenie is cc''d). Once the plugin was installed, I couldn''t run any rake tasks because "require ''sentry''" in task/sentry.rake blows up when it is loaded by railties/lib/tasks/rails.rb. It blows up because the plugin''s lib directory is not in the load path. I copied the load path munging for plugins out of initializer.rb and put it in railties/lib/tasks/rails.rb and everything worked fine." I could use some help understanding a) what the ''railties'' directory is / contains as I''ve not run across it before, and b) if this approach would work on my hosted VPS system. The limited ability I have to parse the above makes it look to me like the equivalent on my setup would have me modifying ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.2.2/lib/tasks/rails.rb which I''m pretty sure I do not have access to on my hosted system. Is there some other way to fix this? Any help from anybody with experience using this plugin would be really appreciated.
