redirect problem

Hi all

I've got the following problem: With this method i check if a user is logged in. If not, he will be redirected to home:   def check_login     if logged_in?       true     else       redirect_to root_path     end   end

Now the problem is: When i call this method in an other method where is a next redirect_to or a render-command, the error "Can only render or redirect once per action" occures.

Is there something like the "die()"-Command in PHP for stopping the execution-process after the first redirect?

Anyone an idea?

as far as i concern, double redirection is not allowed in rails. We usually check the login method in before_filter and we do not call it from within another method. So, I believe if u user before_filter, the problem will fly

Ok, this would be a solution :wink:

Thank you!
