type mismatch; found : Object required: play.api.mvc.Result

At getOrElse in the code that follows, I'm getting the following error:

type mismatch; found : Object required: play.api.mvc.Result

What is wrong? I'm usinging playframework2.2

def onUnauthorized(request: RequestHeader) =
        Results.BadRequest(Json.obj("error" -> "Invalid signature"))

def withUserSigner(f: User => Request[Map[String, Seq[String]]] => Result) = Action(BodyParsers.parse.urlFormEncoded) {
        request =>
            val userOpt = request.body.get(SRT_ACCESS_KEY).flatMap { email =>
                DB.withConnection { implicit connection =>
                    User.findByEmail(email.mkString).flatMap { user =>
                        getSigner(request.method, request.path, request.body, user)
                    }
                }
            }

            userOpt.map { user =>
                Action(BodyParsers.parse.urlFormEncoded) { request => f(user)(request) }(request)
            }.getOrElse {  *//got error in this line   "type mismatch; found : Object required: play.api.mvc.Result"*
               onUnauthorized(request)
            }
}

The problem is in this snippet:

userOpt.map { user =>
  Action(BodyParsers.parse.urlFormEncoded) { request => f(user)(request) }(request)
}.getOrElse {  
  onUnauthorized(request)
}

In your map you're calling Action which just returns an Action, not a Result. The type returned by getOrElse is an object because it's the common ancestor of both Result and Action.

Since you have both the user and request required to invoke f, you should just do this:

userOpt.map { user =>
  f(user)(request)
}.getOrElse {  
  onUnauthorized(request)
}
