    <p>I'm doing the ruby on rails tutorial book and I have come to an error. I checked everything he wrote and I still get the error. It tells me authenticate is an undefined method for nil:NILclass. I don't know what to do. </p> <p>user.rb:</p> <pre><code>class User &lt; ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessible :email, :name, :password, :password_confirmation attr_accessor :password, :password_confirmation has_secure password before_save { |user| user.email = email.downcase } validates :name, presence: true, length: { maximum: 50 } VALID_EMAIL_REGEX = /\A[\w+\-.]+@[a-z\d\-.]+\.[a-z]+\z/i validates :email, presence: true, format: { with: VALID_EMAIL_REGEX}, uniqueness: {case_sensitive: false} validates :password, presence: true, length:{ minimum: 6 } validates :password_confirmation, presence: true end </code></pre> <p>and (some of) my user_spec.rb</p> <pre><code>before do @user = User.new(name: "Example User", email: "User@example", password: "foobar", password_confirmation:"foobar") end subject { @user } it { should respond_to(:password_digest) } it { should respond_to(:password) } it { should respond_to(:password_confirmation) } it { should respond_to(:authenticate) } it { should be_valid } # USER.PASSWORD describe "when password is not present" do before { @user.password = @user.password_confirmation = " "} it {should_not be_valid} end describe "when password is not present" do before { @user.password_confirmation = "mismatch" } it { should_not be_valid } describe "when password is nil" do before { @user.password_confirmation = nil } it {should_not be_valid} end describe "with a password that's too short" do before { @user.password = @user.password_confirmation = "a" * 5 } it { should be_valid } end describe "return value of authenticate method" do before { @user.save } let(:found_user) { User.find_by_email(@user.email) } describe "with valid password" do it { should == found_user.authenticate(@user.password) } end describe "with invalid password" do let(:user_for_invalid_password) { found_user.authenticate("invalid") } it {should_not == user_for_invalid_password} specify { user_for_invalid_password.should be_false} end end end </code></pre> <p>Thanks alot for all that can help.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
