are you using devise for User model? because as I know AR doesn't have confirm! method — jizak, Jan 14 '13 at 09:07
Make sure you have `:confirmable` in `devise` method arguments in `User` class. — Ahmad Sherif, Jan 14 '13 at 09:56

Confirm functions of devise come when you include the confirmable module in your model. From the looks of it, i don't think you have used that in your model.

your code should have a confirmable symbol like below

class User < ActiveRecord::Base

  devise :database_authenticatable, :registerable, :omniauthable, :confirmable,
         :recoverable, :rememberable, :trackable, :validatable

end

undefined method `confirm!' for #
