  • And that last test that was failing was because I forgot the uncomment one of the lines we had commented out in the user.rb file when you were helping me last night. Doh!!!

  • I confirmed it by opening up a irb console then:
    >> r="RUBY"
    >> r=r.downcase # Output will be "ruby"

    But if I do this:
    r=r.downcase! # Output will be nil

    The last line is canceling itself out.

  • It appears that:

    before_save { |user| user.email = email.downcase! }

    does puts in nil because I was modifying the email attributes AND trying to assign it to the same email attributes in the same line.

  • Hey Stuart, I finally figured out why that line in my user.rb file failed.

  • Never mind, I figure it out. The Github repo didn't have the .exe file so I found it at another repo. Works like a charm now!

  • Hey, Stuart. Stupid question but what do I have to run after I extract the files? I followed your instructions but it didn't work. Do I have to compile it, just run a batch file. I'm lost
