Rails 2.2.2
Ruby 1.8.6
I am developing an application that uses a gem for authentication. When
I try and add a new user then the rails code within the gem enters an
infinite loop. The author is working on this issue but I would like to
obtain the benefit of your collective experience.
Given
map.resource :account, :controller => 'users'
map.resource :user_session
map.resources :users
# GET /users/new
# GET /users/new.xml
def new
@user = User.new(params[:user])
if @user.save
flash[:notice] = 'User Account Added'
redirect_back_or_default account_url
else
render :action => new
end
end
# POST /users
# POST /users.xml
def create
@user = User.new(params[:user])
respond_to do |format|
if @user.save
flash[:notice] = 'User was successfully created.'
format.html { redirect_to(@user) }
format.xml { render :xml => @user, :status => :created,
:location => @user }
else
format.html { render :action => "new" }
format.xml { render :xml => @user.errors, :status =>
:unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end
Here is what happens when the server tries to reach
localhost:3000/account/new
CACHE (0.0ms) SELECT "users".id FROM "users" WHERE ("users"."login"
IS NULL) LIMIT 1
User Exists (0.7ms) SELECT "users".id FROM "users" WHERE
("users"."perishable_token" = 'MNrVzl2G5B3AiVl8d3M2') LIMIT 1
User Exists (0.4ms) SELECT "users".id FROM "users" WHERE
("users"."persistence_token" =
'd0357dc4dd2660ae35cdc910a8b9084d4146f3f590722ae683efd974c22095dedba100af859a15a442621444114fa1cd5d66bff0a62f6585f715de9b1de33429')
LIMIT 1
CACHE (0.0ms) SELECT "users".id FROM "users" WHERE ("users"."login"
IS NULL) LIMIT 1
User Exists (0.6ms) SELECT "users".id FROM "users" WHERE
("users"."perishable_token" = '1Vyz36vPA5frHn8J0XII') LIMIT 1
User Exists (0.5ms) SELECT "users".id FROM "users" WHERE
("users"."persistence_token" =
'b2e81093c5ca6a9078b08077fdd8fee8d3a4d4a9d7a299316ac8a15f4a9ea5c6af649800f1b52ad546c6e099d4b7720906b9ef091d224c09b35cc6c29debc333')
LIMIT 1
I infer from this that when the user is null, as is the case with a new
user, then the gem code sets two session tokens that it then checks in
its database. The conclusion that I reach is that the client user
session is not getting these values set by the application and that, as
the user login value remains null, the process repeats ad infinitum.
The question becomes: why are tokens not being set in the session?
I ran across this thread http://forums.pragprog.com/forums/43/topics/276
and wonder if I may have encountered a related problem.
The problem arises whether I use cookie based sessions or AR based
sessions.
Has anyone else run across this type of problem? How was it resolved.
