NameError in Devise::RegistrationsController#create uninitialized constant BCrypt::Password

I have installed devise, but when I go to the sign up page and enter an email and password I get the error: "NameError in Devise::RegistrationsController#create uninitialized constant BCrypt::Password"

Below is my devise_create_users.rb file. Any help would be much appreciated. Oh and by the way, I have run the rake reset:db command and rake migrate:db again to no avail. Thanks!

class DeviseCreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def change
    create_table(:users) do |t|

      t.string :first_name
      t.string :last_name
      t.string :profile_name

      ## Database authenticatable
      t.string :email,              :null => false, :default => ""
      t.string :encrypted_password, :null => false, :default => ""

      ## Recoverable
      t.string   :reset_password_token
      t.datetime :reset_password_sent_at

      ## Rememberable
      t.datetime :remember_created_at

      ## Trackable
      t.integer  :sign_in_count, :default => 0, :null => false
      t.datetime :current_sign_in_at
      t.datetime :last_sign_in_at
      t.string   :current_sign_in_ip
      t.string   :last_sign_in_ip

      ## Confirmable
      # t.string   :confirmation_token
      # t.datetime :confirmed_at
      # t.datetime :confirmation_sent_at
      # t.string   :unconfirmed_email # Only if using reconfirmable

      ## Lockable
      # t.integer  :failed_attempts, :default => 0, :null => false # Only if lock strategy is :failed_attempts
      # t.string   :unlock_token # Only if unlock strategy is :email or :both
      # t.datetime :locked_at


      t.timestamps
    end

    add_index :users, :email,                :unique => true
    add_index :users, :reset_password_token, :unique => true

  end
end

Hi Jared. I believe that you're using gem Bcrypt-ruby in your gemfile. You should remove that gem, run rake db:migrate and in your user.rb, you should check to make sure it has password and password_confirmation.
