Hello my fellow Rails developers. Any Rack specialist out there?
I have forked out my live app to a staging app whith a dedicated staging environment; for which I'm trying to setup a username/password authentication as per the excellent "Heroku Cookbook" from Mike Coutermarsh. My staging.rb file in the Environment folder looks like:
# Based on production defaults
require Rails.root.join('config/environments/production')
Jbts2018::Application.configure do
config.middleware.use '::Rack::Auth::Basic' do |user, password|
[user, password] == ['staging', ENV['STAGING_PASS']]
end
end
As soon as I set the Heroku Environment as follows:
RACK_ENV: staging RAILS_ENV: staging
the app crashes miserably.
From the Heroku logs the interesting bits show:

There must be some error in the following snippet :
config.middleware.use '::Rack::Auth::Basic'
I'm not too sure what's wrong though.
Any idea will be most welcome.
Many thanks!
