Sinatra: DB Authentication with Sessions

I am writing a small sinatra application that I am integrating with Authlogic (following https://github.com/ehsanul/Sinatra-Authlogic-Template)

Everything works except for when I try to login. I get the following error:

NameError at /login
undefined local variable or method `active' for #<User:0x000001040208f0>

I am including the authlogic gem versus including it as a vendor. So my Sinatra app is not exactly the same as the one on Github.

Any and all inquiries will be MUCH appreciated!! Thanks!

Found out my issue.

Here is the model according to the Github page:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  acts_as_authentic do |c|
    # Bcrypt is recommended
    #crypto_provider = Authlogic::CryptoProviders::BCrypt
    c.perishable_token_valid_for( 24*60*60 )
    c.validates_length_of_password_field_options =
     {:on => :update, :minimum => 6, :if => :has_no_credentials?}
    c.validates_length_of_password_confirmation_field_options =
     {:on => :update, :minimum => 6, :if => :has_no_credentials?}
  end

  def active?
    active
  end

  def has_no_credentials?
    crypted_password.blank? #&& self.openid_identifier.blank?
  end

  def send_activation_email
    Pony.mail(
      :to => self.email,
      :from => "[email protected]",
      :subject => "Activate your account",
      :body =>  "You can activate your account at this link: " +
                "http://domain.tld/activate/#{self.perishable_token}"
    )
  end

  def send_password_reset_email
    Pony.mail(
      :to => self.email,
      :from => "[email protected]",
      :subject => "Reset your password",
      :body => "We have recieved a request to reset your password. " +
               "If you did not send this request, then please ignore this email.\n\n" +
               "If you did send the request, you may reset your password using the following link: " +
                "http://domain.tld/reset-password/#{self.perishable_token}"
    )
  end
end

I removed all of the mail methods but my script was failing on the active? method because it was looking for an active column in the users table. Since I am unable to append this column to the table (due to data integrity with another system) I simply told my method to return true

My User.rb

class UserSession < Authlogic::Session::Base
end

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  acts_as_authentic do |c|

  end

  def active?
    return true
  end
end

Hope this helps someone!
