wrong number of bind variables (0 for 2) in: first_name = ? AND last_name = ? I''m not sure why I"m getting this error ? def self.authenticate(first_name, last_name, password) user = User.find(:first, :conditions => [''first_name = ? AND last_name = ?'']) if user.blank? Digest::SHA256.hexdigest(password + user.password_salt) != user.password_hash

I''m getting this error message since i moved alot of the database logic to the model. wrong number of bind variables (0 for 2) in: first_name = ? AND last_name = ? def self.authenticate(first_name, last_name, password) user = User.find(:first, :conditions => [''first_name = ? AND last_name = ?'']) if user.blank?

I''m in the process of creating a sign up form for an online application. The form collects account info, company info, and then info for an administrative user. The method looks like this: def create @account = Account.create!(params[:account]) @company = @account.companies.create!(params[:company]) @user = @company.users.create!(params[:user]) end However, this inevitably fails

Hi, The user/login management system in Chapter 31: Authenticating Your Users and Chapter 32: Authorizing Users with Roles of Chad Fowler''s Rails Recipes looks reasonable and adequate. However, when I ran the Chapter 31 code, I get the following error: Username or password invalid And I am not even given the chance to sign in; that is, the signin form does not appear at all. Has

perhaps someone can take a little time to give me a better understanding of how to use form helpers. Here is what I''m working with in my app: user model - (the table where a user registers their information) it contains the following fields - first_name last_name email account_type (currently set to string but will probably be a select box with options) password_salt (I''m

Im still following the authorization recipe from the book, now all works fine but im getting trouble in how handle the model authorization result, if the user and pass are correct, it goes to a welcome screen(admin.rhtml) but if wrong the model prints a message in an ugly exception like page "usr and pass not correct", i want to redirect the user to the login

I created a simple registration form. One column doesn''t seem to be taking the input. I''ve yet to put in any validation or error checking. The column in the database is called ''level'' and is type ''int'' The controller method is fairly simple: def register c = User.new(params[:user]) c.save redirect_to :controller =>

I have most of my books open as I''m trying to create this app. Still not sure how to make this work - hopefully some help / hints can get me further. First I used the "authorizing users" recipe from Rails Recipes. Though I did add some more generic type of registration fields (email, address, etc). I want the registration form on the main page(index) of the site. What I have

sorry, because it seems that I need more explanation on this Rails Recipes authorization - I finally got the code working but after using the login I get this back from Rails- Routing Error No url can be generated for the hash {} I''m guessing it''s coming from the redirect- def login if request.post? session[:user] = User.authenticate(params[:first_name],

I''ve been struggling a bit trying to figure out the best way to design/implement a system with authentication/authorization, and was hoping some of you may be able to offer some advice.. At the moment, I have a system with 4 different types of users - clients, administrators, sales_reps, and public_users. I''m using "Authorizing Users with Roles" from the Rails Recipes

Currently I have a registration form that is built like this: <label for="First name">First name</label> <%= text_field "user", "first_name" %><br> <label for="Last name">Last name</label> <%= text_field "user", "last_name" %><br> <label for="Email">Email</label>

Didn''t think I''d be back so quick with another question but here goes: In this recipe for the signin or login (as I call it) there are these two lines if the user authenticates correctly: session[:user] = user.id redirect_to :action => session[:intended_action], :controller => session[:intended_controller] So I''m not seeing anything in the way of an explanation

I have a few pages where a user may do something (add tags, login, etc) and I would like to redirect them back to the last page they were at before calling that action. Is there an easy way to do this? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello all, Thank you in advance for your help with this. I am trying to implement the user authentication method from Ruby Recipes which calls for the use of SHA 2. Here is the code for the password: def password=(pass) salt = [Array.new(6){rand(256).chr}.join].pack("m").chomp self.password_salt, self.password_hash = salt, Digest::SHA256.hexdigest(pass + salt) end I open

2 quick questions regarding authentication ... 1) the flash[:notice] on successful login looks completely wrong to me. How should it be done? def index if request.post? @user = User.new(params[:user]) authentic_user = @user.attempt_login if authentic_user session[:user_id] = authentic_user.id flash[:notice] = ''Login successful! Welcome

I am building an application that requires a C++ program to access the Rails web application using POST. Now, I just added user authentication to the mix and it has made things more interesting. I''m using basic authentication as shown in the AWDWR and Rails Recipes books. I can now get my C++ program to submit the user credentials to the login/login page. All I want the login page

using the Rails Recipes book, i went through the tutorial on setting up authentication on a site. the tutorial was great, but it raises a few questions. the fields in the database are password_hash, and password_salt. the tutorial creates another method for password that takes the value it was given and hashes it and adds the 6 character salt at the end. what if i want to perform validation
