I've been working on Rails 3.0.0 and Authlogic for quite a while now but
all of a sudden I can't login into my application anymore.
After some research I found out that no sessions are stored into the db
anymore so I started the console and saw this:
ruby-1.9.2-p0 > u = UserSession.new({:username => 'Test', :password =>
'test123'})
=> #<UserSession: {:username=>"Test", :password=>"<protected>"}>
ruby-1.9.2-p0 > u.save
NoMethodError: undefined method `cookies' for "UserSession":String

To be honest I have no idea why this happens all of a sudden. Anyone ran
into the same problem?
Apparently, this part of the code causes the trouble:
def save_cookie
controller.cookies[cookie_key] = {
:value =>
"#{record.persistence_token}::#{record.send(record.class.primary_key)}",
:expires => remember_me_until,
:domain => controller.cookie_domain
}
end
For some reason the "controller" variable is only a String. Couldn't
find where it's set but yeah... it's a bit too deep in the Gem code so I
guess I need to switch to another authentification gem until this is
solved.
Can't you roll back in your source control system to a version that
worked and determine the cause of the problem that way? Or do you
think it was a change in your system (gem upgrade or whatever) that
caused the problem to appear.

I did a rollback already but that didn't help. So it can only have
something to do with the gems even though I have only one version of
Authlogic installed:
authlogic (2.1.6)
I have the same issue, except instead of a string, it's an object:

My problem disappeared after some weeks of ignoring it, still no
freaking idea what caused it and what made it disappear again but your
template looks very interesting. Will give it a try once it's back
