Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token < in rails

Question

This is my first question on StackOverflow. I am new to Rails and am making a simple Rails app in which I am doing a modal popup for user login in. My code is below.

App/Controller/Sessions:

class Users::SessionsController < Devise::SessionsController
 # respond_to :html, :json
 # before_action :check_user_session, only: [:new]
 # GET /resource/sign_in
 def new
 self.resource = resource_class.new(sign_in_params)
 clean_up_passwords(resource)
 yield resource if block_given?
 respond_to do |format|
 format.js
 format.html
 end
 end
 # POST /resource/sign_in
 def create
 self.resource = warden.authenticate(auth_options)
 if self.resource.present?
 set_flash_message(:notice, :signed_in)
 sign_in(resource_name, resource)
 yield resource if block_given?
 respond_with resource, location: after_sign_in_path_for(resource)
 else
 respond_to do |format|
 format.js
 end
 end
 end

My new.js.haml file:

$("#login-modal").html("#{escape_javascript(render 'new')}");
$("#exampleModal").modal();

I am getting this error when I click the sign in button.

• Rafalon: Might have something to do with class Users::SessionsController < Devise::SessionsController (your first line). I don't know much about ruby, but seems like < is unexpected there
• RahulPatel: no that is not the issue with class Users::SessionsController < Devise::SessionsController because this is my controller and it is inherrited by devise
• Rafalon: Well then, don't you miss an end at the end ?
• Anand: can you share you new.html.erb or the sign_in form?
• Diego Patricio Aguilef Sánchez: Can you post the full error trace ?

Answer 1

change file new.js.haml to new.js.erb with following code:

$("#login-modal").html("<%= escape_javascript(render 'new') %>");
$("#exampleModal").modal();

• puneet18: have you changed file extension to js.erb?
