Also: when the error message says "app/controllers/user_controller.rb: 
14", that actually means that the issue is at line 14 of the  
user_controller.rb file - it's telling you where it's having a problem.

Of course, that might not be the complete solution, but it's the best  
place to start - could be a missing "end" or } at line 14, or perhaps  
something else.

The development environment error messages in Rails aren't too hard  
to trace back to the problem in your code (most of the time...)

Hope that helps,
