NoMethodError in MembersController#create undefined method `role_ids' for nil:NilClass

[michaelward82]

I'm receiving this error after member registration.

I believe it is related to the redirect_to(is_admin? ? admin_memberships_path : root_path ) call to is_admin? that fails when calling !(current_user.role_ids & [REFINERY_ROLE_ID, SUPERUSER_ROLE_ID]).empty?

Any advice on how to overcome this?

Are those defined? Each of those constants corresponds to a role in the
database.

In rails console:

Load the user that was created by membership registration

 => false 

It seems to me that current_user isn't being set.

I have found that modifying the create method in members_controller.rb and adding sign_in(@member) fixes the problem.

At the moment I don't understand how this controller can function correctly without this modification. Is something going wrong in my setup?

def create
    @member = Member.new(params[:member])
    @member.username = @member.email
    @member.membership_level = 'Member'

    if @member.save
      MembershipMailer.application_confirmation_member(@member).deliver
      MembershipMailer.application_confirmation_admin(@member).deliver

      sign_in(@member)

      redirect_to(is_admin? ? admin_memberships_path : root_path )

    else
      @page = Page.find_by_link_url('/members/new')
      @member.errors.delete(:username) # this is set to email
      render :action => :new

    end

  end
