While running an app how do you select a user by email address and then set the password manually within rails console for Devise?
Also, where would I go to review documentation to cover more details in this regard to manipulation of accounts while using Devise?
Modern devise allows simpler syntax, no need to set the confirmation field
user.password = new_password; user.save # or user.update(password: new_password) 
User.store_in 'admin_users' however received undefined method. I'm not seemingly able to access the table as I'm just getting a nil back each time. What about querying the entire table and just getting all entries therein initially to test to see if I'm getting into that table initially? (Working in MySQL here, however that shouldn't matter with ActiveRecord.)
user.update(password: new_password)# $ rails console production u=User.where(:email => '[email protected]').first u.password='userpassword' u.password_confirmation='userpassword' u.save! 
User.find_by_email('[email protected]').update_attributes(:password => 'password')If you run the following in the rails console it should do the trick:
User.find_by(email: 'user_email_address').reset_password!('new_password','new_password') http://www.rubydoc.info/github/plataformatec/devise/Devise/Models/Recoverable
User.find_by(email: 'user_email_address').reset_password('new_password','new_password')
You can simply update password field, no need for confirmation password, devise will save it in encrypted form
u = User.find_by_email('[email protected]') u.update_attribute(:password, '123123') For some reason, (Rails 2.3??)
user = User.where(:email => email).first didn't work for me, but
user = User.find_by_email('[email protected]') did it.
1.Login in to ralis console
$ sudo bundle exec rails console production 2.Then update the administrator's password
irb(main):001:0> user = User.where("username = 'root'") irb(main):002:0> u = user.first irb(main):003:0> u.password="root2014@Robin" => "root2014@Robin" irb(main):004:0> u.password_confirmation="root2014@Robin" => "root2014@Robin" irb(main):005:0> u.save => true irb(main):006:0> exit 3.Refresh the login page, use the new password to login, enjoy!
Good Luck!
User.find_by_email('[email protected]').update_attributes(:password => 'password')User.find_by_email('[email protected]').update_attributes(:password => 'password') If your account is locked from too many login attempts, you may also need to do:
user.locked_at = '' user.failed_attempts = '0' user.save!
