I'm attempting to finish up this facebook omniauth integration and ran into the error below. I'm not sure what's causing it to happen. It only occures the second time that I try to log in using the facebook auth. The first time (on user create) it works perfectly. But if I log out and hten log in it throws this error.
Here's the error
ActionController::UnknownFormat in Users::OmniauthCallbacksController#facebook
Users::OmniauthCallbacksController#facebook is missing a template for this request format and variant. request.formats: ["text/html"] request.variant: [] NOTE! For XHR/Ajax or API requests, this action would normally respond with 204 No Content: an empty white screen. Since you're loading it in a web browser, we assume that you expected to actually render a template, not nothing, so we're showing an error to be extra-clear. If you expect 204 No Content, carry on. That's what you'll get from an XHR or API request. Give it a shot.

I'm using GoRails.com FB omniauth tutorial to build this.
here's the user model from the db
create_table "users", force: :cascade do |t|
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.integer "sign_in_count", default: 0, null: false
t.datetime "current_sign_in_at"
t.datetime "last_sign_in_at"
t.string "current_sign_in_ip"
t.string "last_sign_in_ip"
t.datetime "created_at", null: false
t.datetime "updated_at", null: false
t.string "referral_id"
t.string "first_name"
t.string "last_name"
t.string "phone_number"
t.boolean "redeemed", default: false
t.string "dealership"
t.integer "points", default: 0
t.boolean "referral_completed", default: false
t.string "name"
t.index ["email"], name: "index_users_on_email", unique: true
t.index ["reset_password_token"], name: "index_users_on_reset_password_token", unique: true
end
Thanks for the help!
The problem is that if the user is already present (i.e. the second time), there is no call to redirect the user to go to root or somewhere.
You have an if-else block which check whether or not a user is visiting your application for the first time. If the user visits for the first-time, then you are creating the user and redirecting the user using
sign_in_and_redirect user, event: :authentication
However, if the user is already present (i.e. the if block), there is no redirect call. By default, Rails is therefore trying to find a view template facebook.html.erb, which is not present. Hence, the error
Users::OmniauthCallbacksController#facebook is missing a template for this request format and variant. request.formats: ["text/html"] request.variant: [] NOTE! For XHR/Ajax or API requests, this action would normally respond with 204 No Content: an empty white screen. Since you're loading it in a web browser, we assume that you expected to actually render a template, not nothing, so we're showing an error to be extra-clear. If you expect 204 No Content, carry on. That's what you'll get from an XHR or API request. Give it a shot.
You can add a redirect call at the end of the if block
if service.present?
user = service.user
service.update(
expires_at: Time.at(auth.credentials.expires_at),
access_token: auth.credentials.token,
)
#add the following line
sign_in_and_redirect user, event: :authentication
else
....
