Question

We’re using the standard devise forgot password mailer:

<p>Hello <%= @resource.email %>!</p>

<p>Someone has requested a link to change your password, and you can do this through the link below.</p>

<p><%= link_to 'Change my password', edit_password_url(@resource, :reset_password_token => @resource.reset_password_token) %></p>

On production this is generating a localhost url for Change Password:

http://localhost:3000/users/password/edit?reset_password_token=amqs2q9NcM1FerHKhmzV

This is strange given the production.rb file has our domain:

config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { :host => 'mysite.com' }

Why is mysite.com not being used in the URL? Ideas?

Thanks

Answer 1

My guess is that config.action_mailer.default_url_options is being overwritten somewhere. Do you have any file in config/initializers that affects ActionMailer?

Try running rails console on your production box and see what

ActionMailer::Base.default_url_options[:host]

returns.
