Can't convert Fixnum into String - Devise/sessions Controller issue

So this is the error I see:

TypeError in Devise/sessionsController#create

can't convert Fixnum i开发者_JAVA技巧nto String

Application Trace | Framework Trace | Full Trace
app/controllers/application_controller.rb:21:in `set_current_user'

This is how application_controller.rb looks:

    class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  helper :all
   helper_method :current_user, :logged_in?

  protect_from_forgery
  before_filter :set_current_user

  def set_xhr_flash
    flash.discard if request.xhr?
  end

  def correct_safari_and_ie_accept_headers
    ajax_request_types = ['text/javascript', 'application/json', 'text/xml']
    request.accepts.sort! { |x, y| ajax_request_types.include?(y.to_s) ? 1 : -1 } if request.xhr?
  end


  protected 

  def set_current_user
    Authorization.current_user = current_user
  end

end

Help!

Anyone come up with any solutions for this?

Ok so I finally found the answer. The db got corrupt. Once I dumped the entire db, deleted the db file and re-created everything - I was good to go.

sigh

I just hope I can figure out a way to prevent that from happening in production.

Are you sure that the following is in your correct whatever_controller.rb?

  before_filter :authenticate_user!

did you set the database password to be a pure number? My database password was 111111 in the devlopment machine, according to the error info "can't convert Fixnum into String", I guess i should change database password to be non-numeric "abcdef" and it worked!
