Rails 4 Generate Devise Views

Question

I'd like to generate some devise views for an application, but whenever I try to use the command `rails g devise:views`, I get a complex error, well above my understanding. ``` /Users/michaeldunnegan/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/railties-4.0.0/lib/rails/application/routes_reloader.rb:10:in `rescue in execute_if_updated': Rails::Application::RoutesReloader#execute_if_updated delegated to updater.execute_if_updated, but updater is nil: #]> (RuntimeError) from /Users/michaeldunnegan/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/railties-4.0.0/lib/rails/application/routes_reloader.rb:6:in `execute_if_updated' from /Users/michaeldunnegan/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/railties-4.0.0/lib/rails/application/finisher.rb:69:in `block in ' from /Users/michaeldunnegan/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/railti…

make sure you have the `devise` gem compatible with rails 4 `gem 'devise', '~> 3.0.0.rc' #or higher`

run `bundle update`

Remove `devise.rb` in `initializers`, then run `devise:install` again to install new configs in intializers.

make sure you run `devise` model generator, for example `rails g devise User`

now you should be able to run: `rails g devise:views`

Edit

After working in teamviewer on Mike's computer, we took a copy of `devise.rb` from a working project on rails 4 and place it in `config/initializers/`

Next we ran the `rails generate devise:install` command and it said something back about a deprecation and asked us if we want to replace the content of `devise.rb` file. We accepted it and after this all devise commands worked well.
