Rails - Dec 2008 - restful auth problem

Hi folks,

I have been working on a website and I used restful auth as a starting 
point for the authentication.

Suddenly (I don''t think I broke it but I don''t know) it has
started
throwing me a weird problem.

I have a view that checks to see if the user is logged in (logged_in?) 
and if yes, check the user''s roles (current_user.has_role?) and display
a menu accordingly.

The login check seems to return true for non-authenticated users and 
thus falls over when it tries to get the roles (no method: nil.has_role?)

I have definitely not fiddled with the restful auth libs, like 
authenticated_system.rb. I have gone back and checked the svn logs to 
see what else I might have broken, but I can''t find a trace.

I don''t know where to start tracking this problem down, I looked at the
code for logged_in? and it''s so simple I don''t see how it
could have got
broken.

Any ideas welcomed as I''m pretty much stuck

Thanks

Matt

Solved...embarrasingly.

I was looking at the wrong line...doh

The actual problem was I had used "has_role?" later on in the layout
but
hadn''t wrapped it with "if logged_in?".

Lets just keep quiet about this one :P
