problems with Encrypt Sensitive Data and rails 2.0.2? Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - /Users/jane/Development/actsassecure/config/crypto.yml

When going through the tutorial I get

Loading development environment (Rails 2.0.2)
>> SecretPatient.create(:name => ‘John Doe’, :address => ‘Somewhere Secret’, :ssn => ‘012-345-6789’)
Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory – /Users/jane/Development/actsassecure/config/crypto.yml

then I created a blank file called config/crypto.yml and try again and I get

from (irb):1>> SecretPatient.create(:name => 'John Doe', :address => 'Somewhere Secret', :ssn => '012-345-6789')  
NoMethodError: undefined method `[]' for false:FalseClass
from /Users/jane/Development/actsassecure/lib/master_crypto_provider.rb:13

I have the latest acts_as_secure
rel_0_0_3:
date: 2007-06-26

and
ezcrypto (0.7)

1. So I created a blank config/crypto.yml file and tried again

Charles -

Does your crypto.yml file look like this?

development:
  master_key: YOUR_SECRET_MASTER_KEY
  salt: YOUR_SALT

That’s the format the MasterCryptoProvider class in the book assumes. If your file is in that format, then I’d need to see your master_crypo_provider.rb file to see what’s on line 13.

Hi Mike-

Thanks. I could not find the details of the crypto.yml file in the recipe. Your update here is a great help.

Best Regards-

Charles

I’ve added crypto.yml to the recipe to avoid future confusion.

Thanks!

Mike
