flash.now[:error] = ‘Unknown user. Please check your username and password.’

render :action => “sign_in”

end

end

end

For model

user = find_by_email(email)

if user && user.password_hash == BCrypt::Engine.hash_secret(password, user.password_salt)

user

else

nil

end

end

Kindly help ASAP

Please copy/paste the full error message here, and tell us which line of code it refers to. We are not telepathic. At least I am not.
