I got the error NoMethodError in Devise::Registrations#new

Hi, I tried to do everything you did in the video but I still get error message. I can't find any solution for it anywhere. I'm using rails 4.1.1 I'm not sure if it because of different rails version or what.

Here's the message. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2UmSdhbmJtxTk92a3IxcFVrTXc/edit?usp=sharing

Thanks for your answer Sam

Hi Sam,

Did you migrate the database? You need to add the "first_name" field to your users table. If you did, open your migration file and make sure you spelled it correctly. It should look like something like this

t.string :first_name

Thank you for your answer nick. It turned out my rake db:migrate didn't work. So, I just restarted my laptop and it's working ok
