Question

I created a User model using Devise and whenever I use rake db:migrate I get the following issue:

==  DeviseCreateUsers: migrating ==============================================
-- create_table(:users)
rake aborted!
An error has occurred, this and all later migrations canceled:

undefined method `database_authenticatable' for #<ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::TableDefinition:0x00000103fa1ff0>

Tasks: TOP => db:migrate
(See full trace by running task with --trace)

I run the full trace with the --trace function but can’t seem to figure out what the issue is.
Here is the migration file:

class DeviseCreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
create_table(:users) do |t|
  t.database_authenticatable :null => false
  t.recoverable
  t.rememberable
  t.trackable
  t.confirmable

  # t.encryptable
  # t.lockable :lock_strategy => :failed_attempts, :unlock_strategy => :both
  # t.token_authenticatable


  t.timestamps
 end

add_index :users, :email,                :unique => true
add_index :users, :reset_password_token, :unique => true
add_index :users, :confirmation_token,   :unique => true
# add_index :users, :unlock_token,         :unique => true
# add_index :users, :authentication_token, :unique => true
end

def self.down
  drop_table :users
  end
end

Good to hear.
I guess the official answer would be to rerun the steps:

rails g devise:install

rails g devise user

rake db:migrate

rails s // cycle your server just in case…
