Pavling, I removed the line *self.password = User.encrypt(@password1, self.salt)
*and rest worked fine. So I deduced that this might be calling password action again and going into recursive action. That's the reason I changed my variables as explained earlier.. Tom, That might be another solution. But what I am trying to know is why isn't this method working. And how is the action *def password=(pass) *actually being called. Because I didn't see any exclusive line where it is being called. My analysis says it is being executed because of the *attr_accessor*and having name same as that of the column *password. Am I right? *Regards Sumit Srivastava The power of imagination makes us infinite...
