Unable to sign out in a Rails app, using Devise gem, no route matches /users/sign_out

Answer 1

in devise.rb

find config.sign_out_via = :delete

change to config.sign_out_via = :get

if you use :get make sure you are using :method = :get and if you are using :delete using :method => :delete in your link

in production you may have to swap it round, so you should use an if statement to check RAILS_ENV

In your example you are probably running in development mode and not test, which is why it's probably not working.

And restart your server as it's an initialiser.
