    <p>I have a method that I want to execute some search logic, and then save a Search object that has the searched string and user id of the person who did the search.</p> <p>The search/save logic seems to be working fine otherwise, but when I try to get the current user (using a method from the application controller) it throws a runtime error that has to do with the session:</p> <pre><code>ActionController::Metal#session delegated to @_request.session, but @_request is nil: #&lt;SearchController:0x1038e32e0 @action_has_layout=true, @view_context_class=nil, @_status=200, @_headers={"Content-Type"=&gt;"text/html"}&gt; </code></pre> <p>Here's the method in the search controller:</p> <pre><code>class SearchController &lt; ApplicationController ... def factualsearch(search) if search searchquery = Search.new # this causes the error if current_user searchquery.user = current_user end searchquery.search_string = search searchquery.save ... end @results end </code></pre> <p>end</p> <p>Here's the current_user method I'm trying to call from my application controller:</p> <pre><code>def current_user return unless session[:user_id] @current_user ||= User.find_by_id(session[:user_id]) end helper_method :current_user </code></pre> <p>Here's the pages controller where I'm calling the method:</p> <pre><code>class PagesController &lt; ApplicationController ... def search searchcontrol = SearchController.new @results = searchcontrol.factualsearch(params[:search]) end ... </code></pre> <p>end</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.
