no implicit conversion of Symbol into Integer
devise, implicit-conversion, ruby-on-rails-4
Solution
I fixed the issue after a number of hours. Hopefully this helps someone out there. Seems Devise changed its documentation. Anyway I removed this line:
account_update_params = devise_parameter_sanitizer.for(:account_update)
and changed this line:
if @user.update_with_password(account_update_params)
to
if @user.update_with_password(devise_parameter_sanitizer.sanitize(:account_update))
Everything works..now I need a drink.
Problem
I'm using rails 4.0.1 and ruby 2.0.0 with devise 3.2.2. I keep getting this issue when a user tries to edit his account. I have my strong parameters in application_controller.rb and a custom update controller which looks like this: class RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController ``` def update # For Rails 4 account_update_params = devise_parameter_sanitizer.for(:account_update) @user = User.find(current_user.id) @user.balanced_associate_token_with_customer(account_update_params) if @user.update_with_password(account_update_params) set_flash_message :notice, :updated # Sign in the user bypassing validation in case his password changed sign_in @user, :bypass => true redirect_to after_update_path_for(@user) else render "edit" end end ``` protected def after_update_path_for(resource) user_path(resource) end end I have been pulling my hairs since yesterday...any assitance would be appreciated. Let me know if you need any more info. Edited: The only thing that changed before i noticed the error is that devise starting asking for config.secret_key in devise initialize file. A portion of the full trace shows: ``` devise (3.2.2) lib/devise/models/database_authenticatable.rb:64:in `[]' devise (3.2.2) lib/devise/models/database_authenticatable.rb:64:in `update_with_password' app/controllers/registrations_controller.rb:12:in `update' actionpack (4.0.2) lib/action_controller/metal/implicit_render.rb:4:in `send_action' actionpack (4.0.2) lib/abstract_controller/base.rb:189:in `process_action' ``` Thanks!
