#<AccountSession: no credentials provided> adds errors to the form on :new action about authlogic

[NebJ]

You should do something like that:
@account_session = AccountSession.new(:username => 'my_username', :password => 'password')

[gavinhughes]

Doing that on the :new action will populate the form with (incorrect) data, which is not what we want on :new. We want the form to be blank. Calling AccountSession.new(:username => ' ', :password => ' ') gives the same "no credentials..." error. I'm sure the solution is simple, but I don't see it.

Did you ever figure this out? I'm having a very similar problem.

I agree that I am experiencing the same issue. I am currently running rails 3 beta 3 and authlogic 2.1.4.

# user_sessions_controller.rb
class UserSessionsController < ApplicationController
  def new
    # offending line
    @user_session = UserSession.new
  end
end

# error message
ActionView::Template::Error (undefined method `to_key' for #) on line #2 of /Users/leonard/Sites/media_six/single_sign_on/app/views/user_sessions/new.html.erb:
1: 
2: <%= form_for @user_session do |f| %>
3:  <%= render "shared/error_messages", :target => @user_session %>
4:  
5:  <%= field_set_tag 'login' do %>

coop: me too, on my r3b3 test project.

same here

I had problems when I tried to do it without a user id / login field. I wanted multiple email addresses associated with a single account/password, and authlogic does not support that. Make sure you have some sort of login field.

is any one find the solution? i am facing the same...

[plusjade]

I managed to get mine working by changing form_for tag to this:

<% form_for :user_session, @user_session, :url => { :action => "create" } do |f| %>

Hope this helps.

Thanks, that is what is needed to display default form errors on the login template.

To keep the form from repopulating the login field. I added the following to UserSessionsController::create
@user_session.login = nil
render :action => :new
