Hi Arima,

I haven’t been able to get back to this yet. It’s on my list, but I’ve been swamped.

running 10.4.9 w/ everything else the same, and getting the same error message.

1 error prohibited this user from being saved
There were problems with the following fields:
Auth type not a valid authentication type

Perhaps this has somethng to do with Locomotive install 2.0.8?

I’m trying to replicate this, but at the moment I’m having a problem running at all with an SQLite3 db: I just get an Invalid Table Structure error - not sure why, because I’ve used SQLite3 with Locomotive before.

I’ll look into it a bit, but as you may have seen, we might have another method for providing all-in-one installations of Tracks, so hopefully, we won’t have to deal with this kind of problem much longer

bsag,
I wouldn’t spend any additional time on this for my sake. I’ve been able to install everything proper and get it all running. I look forward to the slingshot dist.

Thanks for all your work.

Hello, I don’t know if you’ll remember me but I submitted a couple patches probably two years ago, I’m finally getting back to helping out a bit.

I tried two installs today, both with the trunk. The Ubuntu/Apache/Mongrel Cluster with Sqlite3 worked just fine.

The Debian etch on a usb drive using Webrick gives the same error as this thread. My auth scheme is definitely ‘database’. In user.rb it’s trying to compare ‘database’ to :


'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''database'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Anyone know where the extra single quotes are coming from? I’m going to dig deeper when I bit some spare time but this is very odd.

This is freaky, it does this on my Debian box but generates the correct schema.rb under Ubuntu.

excerpt from db/schema.rb:

create_table "users", :force => true do |t|
    t.string   "login",                     :limit => 80,                                                                                                                                                   :null => false
    t.string   "crypted_password",          :limit => 40,                                                                                                                                                   :null => false
    t.string   "token",                                   :default => "'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''NULL'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''"
    t.boolean  "is_admin",                                :default => false,                                                                                                                                :null => false
    t.string   "first_name",                              :default => "'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''NULL'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''"
    t.string   "last_name",                               :default => "'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''NULL'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''"
    t.string   "auth_type",                               :default => "'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''database'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''",                                                             :null => false
    t.string   "open_id_url",                             :default => "'''''''NULL'''''''"
    t.string   "remember_token",                          :default => "'NULL'"
    t.datetime "remember_token_expires_at"
  end 

To fix it I removed the ‘libsqlite3-ruby1.8’ package from my machine so it would just use the version I installed through gem. This generated the correct schema.rb.

I also found one other small error, I would make a ticket but the guest user doesn’t seem to have new ticket privileges. I’ve attached a fix for when you’re rolling back versions.

To verify do a rake db:migrate VERSION=0 (note: this will DESTROY all your data!), it’ll fail with wrong arguments for remove_column. This patch should fix it:

Index: 031_add_default_context_to_project.rb
===================================================================
--- 031_add_default_context_to_project.rb       (revision 711)
+++ 031_add_default_context_to_project.rb       (working copy)
@@ -4,6 +4,6 @@
   end

   def self.down
-    remove_column :projects, :default_context_id, :integer
+    remove_column :projects, :default_context_id
   end
 end 

I still haven’t solved the whole problem though, now it has just one extra set of single quotes, ex: ‘database’ instead of just plain database.

I have the same problem creating users with the blank db:

Auth type not a valid authentication type (‘database’)

I’m running Locomotive 2.0.8 with bundle March 2007 under a stock MacOS X 10.4.11 ruby-wise.

Kind of frustrating.

Using the sample db to create produces the same problem.

FWIW, you’re having multiple versions of sqlite3-ruby. I’ve seen reports on other gems where that caused conflicts. Perhaps you can uninstall older versions ?
