NoMethodError in Devise::SessionsController#create undefined method `current_sign_in_at'


I am getting the following error when I try to sign in in my rails app. I used devise for authentication. My error is NoMethodError in Devise::SessionsController#create undefined method `current_sign_in_at'

My user model is

models/user.rb
 devise :database_authenticatable, :registerable,
     :recoverable, :rememberable, :trackable, :validatable, :omniauthable
attr_accessible :admin,:first_name, :last_name, :profile_name, :college_name, :email, :password, :password_confirmation, :remember_me, :provider, :uid
def admin?

end
def self.find_for_facebook_oauth(auth)
where(auth.slice(:provider, :uid)).first_or_initialize.tap do |user|
user.provider = auth.provider
user.uid = auth.uid
user.email = auth.info.email
user.password = Devise.friendly_token[0,20]
#user.name = auth.info.name   # assuming the user model has a name
#user.image = auth.info.image # assuming the user model has an image
user.save!
end
end
end

My schema is

db/schema.rb
ActiveRecord::Schema.define(:version => 20140126101946) do

create_table "levels", :force => true do |t|
t.datetime "created_at", :null => false
t.datetime "updated_at", :null => false
end

create_table "users", :force => true do |t|
t.string   "first_name"
t.string   "last_name"
t.string   "profile_name"
t.string   "college_name"
t.string   "email",                  :default => "",    :null => false
t.string   "encrypted_password",     :default => "",    :null => false
t.string   "reset_password_token"
t.datetime "reset_password_sent_at"
t.datetime "remember_created_at"
t.datetime "created_at",                                :null => false
t.datetime "updated_at",                                :null => false
t.string   "provider"
t.string   "uid"
t.boolean  "admin",                  :default => false
end

add_index "users", ["email"], :name => "index_users_on_email", :unique => true
add_index "users", ["reset_password_token"], :name => "index_users_on_reset_password_token", :unique => true

end

The code in my devise_create_users.rb is

class DeviseCreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
def change
create_table(:users) do |t|
  t.string :first_name
  t.string :last_name
  t.string :profile_name
  t.string :college_name
  ## Database authenticatable
  t.string :email,              :null => false, :default => ""
  t.string :encrypted_password, :null => false, :default => ""

  ## Recoverable
  t.string   :reset_password_token
  t.datetime :reset_password_sent_at

  ## Rememberable
  t.datetime :remember_created_at

  ## Trackable
  t.integer  :sign_in_count, :default => 0
  t.datetime :current_sign_in_at
  t.datetime :last_sign_in_at
  t.string   :current_sign_in_ip
  t.string   :last_sign_in_ip

My trackable was commented and I removed the comments and then ran rake db:migrate but nothing happened. Now I cannot remove trackable as I need it. What I need is that somehow I can keep my devise as it is and also add trackable to it in such a way that it gets added to the schema.rb as well.


Solution

  • To add new columns to existing tables, simply updating already run migration is not going to work as the schema is at a later version than your existing migration's version. If you wish to modify the existing migration, you could run a down migration with:

    rake db:migrate:down VERSION=20140126101944 # use version of the user migration
    

    Then modify the migration adding the new columns as you've already done, then run up migration using:

    rake db:migrate:up VERSION=20140126101944 # use version of the user migration
    

    A better approach is to add a new migration with the change if your application is already in production.

    To add the trackable columns to existing users table:

    class AddTrackableColumnsToUser < ActiveRecord::Migration
      def change
        change_table :users do |t|
          ## Trackable
          t.add_column :sign_in_count, :integer, :default => 0
          t.add_column :current_sign_in_at, :datetime
          t.add_column :last_sign_in_at, :datetime
          t.add_column :current_sign_in_ip, :string
          t.add_column :last_sign_in_ip, :string
        end
      end
    end
    

    Then run db:migrate:

    rake db:migrate
