I'm very confused on this restful authentication plugin on rails 3. I tried to install the plugin using the following command. It tells me it's already installed, then I tried to use the --force to reinstall this plugin it tells me that the plugin not found
So if the plugin is already installed why do I get error Could not find generator authenticated when I try to run the command rails g authenticated user sessions --include-activation
any ideas?
C:\Users\Jonathan\Documents\blog>rails plugin install http://github.com
/technoweenie/restful-authentication.git restful_authentication
already installed: restful-authentication (http://github.com/technoweenie/restfu
l-authentication.git). pass --force to reinstall
already installed: restful_authentication (restful_authentication). pass --forc
e to reinstall
C:\Users\Jonathan\Documents\blog>rails plugin install http://github.com
/technoweenie/restful-authentication.git restful_authentication --force
Plugin not found: ["http://github.com/technoweenie/restful-authentication.git",
"restful_authentication"]
C:\Users\Jonathan\Documents\blog>rails g authenticated user sessions --
include-activation
Could not find generator authenticated.

Restful authentication is no more 100% working in rails 3. It has some issues to fit in rails 3.x. Try using Authlogic or in fact "devise" should prove to be a great authentication system especially for Rails 3.x.I use devise for my apps and it works great !!!
