similar to: Salted Login Generator glitch

Hey, so - I''ve been fiddling about and fell in to use Joe''s simple-yet- painful SHLG (I shouldn''t complain... not at least I have time to produce one :)). I just recently plugged in memcache, and- it''s not preserving my login. I traced the execution and it sets the output of User.authenticate (a user AR object) into @session[''user'']

Hello, I am having some trouble running the unit tests for the salted has login generator. I am a bit new to both ruby and rails so I am having a little trouble deciphering the error message I get when running ''rake test_units''. Up till the point where I try to run the unit tests I have followed the quick start guide for the salted hash login generator

I''ve created an array of hashes in UserController#initialize to describe a menu: @menu_array = [ {:menu => ''home'', :controller => ''home'', :action => ''send_home''}, {:menu => ''user list'', :action => ''list''}, {:menu => ''login'', :controller =>

Hey All, Just started to play around with rails a bit today by creating a login system, but I''ve run into a glitch. ###user_controller.rb### class UserController < ApplicationController def login @title = "Log In" if request.post? and params[:user] @user = User.new(params[:user]) @userfind =

Slowly figuring out how to get my SaltedHashLoginGenerator stuff working. The wiki page says to put "before_filter :login_required" in the user (my "user" is "member") controller or in ApplicationController. However, wherever I put it I get NoMethodError. The rest of the SHLG stuff seems to be working... or at least I could get to the signup page, register, and

Hello list, I have an app that has a very simple authorization scheme. A person can have many roles and roles can have many people. In my app, I''d like to do before_filter :login_required (since no role name is provided, it accepts any users with credentials) before_filter :login_required ("administrator") (only accepts those with role administrator) before_filter

Hi there I am wondering if we can use before_filter in the form of :action OR :action what i want to do is to implement one of the actions, if the first failed, then go to the second when i use before_filter :action1 before_filter :action2 each method will run them, my case is that i want to check if one of them is true and not both any idea?

Hello all, I''ve just installed and begun to integrate the salted login generator. So far I''m very impressed, though I''ve hit a few snags along the way. Unfortunately, I''ve met the first one that I haven''t been able to resolve on my own. When I hit the login action, I get errors in my log files. The specific error with trace is included below.

I am trying to make a barebones login system based on this example (which in turn is just standard RoR login) but when I enter a user name and password, it says the login is unsuccessful every time. I am not sure where I am going wrong. Here is all relevent information CREATE TABLE `users` ( `id` int(6) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment, `login` varchar(20) NOT NULL default

Hi. I am working on a generic authentification system for rails (more complete than the login generator). The way it works is you call a method inside your action, passing the domain as a parameter (domains are like a group of users with specific rights). For that purpose, I need to exit the action inside this method because it redirects to a login page if that person isn''t

Im trying to install salted and get errors when running the rake test... /usr/bin/ruby1.8 -Ilib:test "/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.0/lib/rake/rake_test_loader .rb" "test/unit/localization_test.rb" "test/unit/user_test.rb" Loaded suite /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.0/lib/rake/rake_test_loader Started ........F....E Finished in 0.108794 seconds. 1)

I''m using Shoulda and restful_authentication on Rails3 and whenever I run my tests a before filter for login_required is always triggered, despite my filter being set up as: before_filter :login_required, :only => [:update, :edit, :suspend, :unsuspend, :destroy, :purge] My test is this: context ''A guest to the site'' do context ''on GET to

I have been scratching my head on this one for most of the day. Hopefully someone can help explain why before_filter isn''t working for my codes. In my Application controller, I have this: before_filter :login_required, :except => [:newacct, :create_newacct, :passwd_reset ] def login_required unless session[:user_id] flash[:notice] = "Please log in"

I have been installing rails. I got through the //localhost:3000 information. At that point, I figured I need an app and have been working on salted hash login. I found http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/show/SaltedLoginGeneratorQuickstart and worked through to where I want the create the db tables. Instead, I get script/create_db -bash: script/create_db: Permission denied [root@astarcc

Hello all, Any help with this one is MUCH appreciated. I am running Ruby 1.84 and Rails 1.1.0 on Win32 with a local SMTP server. I can successfully send a signup confirmation email with a confirmation link, but when I click on the link, it says that I am logged in, but it never verifies the account. This is the link provided by the system:

I''ve used login_engine successfully before with webrick, and now using a provider that uses fcgi. login_engine doesn''t seem to start up, in the development log file, I get only routing errors for the page requested. The login_engine unit tests pass fine. My question is if an engine is not loaded, not in a path, etc, how is this indicated in rails? None of the log files even

Working through the Users and Authentication of Learning Rails book (great book, code needs to be proof-read in a few cases, though), I came across this: There''s still one leftover that may be worth addressing, depending on your security needs. The authorization? method has secured the data, and the view no longer shows the user options they can''t really use, but if a

Hi there, I''m having a bit of an issue with my before_filter. I know that the filters put in the application.rb controller are global for all the controllers. In my application filter I''d like to allow access to the RSS feed method in a ''member'' controller and skip the login checks that the before_filters are currently performing. In my application my filters

Is there a way to authenticate with an IP address? I''m using the LoginGenerator, but would like to bypass the "before_filter :login_required " if a user is in a correct IP range... Anyone know of a solution? Thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
