Using the Ruby debugger

With debugger I can see the current_user here right before we send if
off
with a respond_to_do to the index view

(rdb:437) method iv current_user
@attributes = {“encrypted_password”=>“”, “created_at”=>“2011-11-16
00:49:31”, “confirmation_sent_at”=>nil, “last_sign_in_ip”=>“192.168.5.
1”, “updated_at”=>“2011-11-18 01:09:32”, “creator”=>nil,
“last_sign_in_at”=>“2011-11-18 00:58:57”, “id”=>“29”,
“sign_in_count”=>“29”, “lastname”=>“xxxxxx”, “password_salt”=>“”,
“reset_password_token”=>nil, “remember_token”=>nil,
“current_sign_in_ip”=>“192.168.5.1”, “firstname”=>“xxxxl”,
“confirmation_token”=>nil, “remember_created_at”=>nil,
“current_sign_in_at”=>“2011-11-18 01:09:32”, “shortlast”=>nil,
“login”=>“xxxxxx”, “email”=>“xxxxxxxxx”, “confirmed_at”=>nil}
@attributes_cache = {}
(rdb:437) l

respond_to do |format|
  format.html # index.html.erb
  format.xml  { render :xml => @workbenches }
end

Any idea what could cause it to be blank when the partial in the view
attempts to reference it? Again this worked fine with
database_authenticate??

<% if user_signed_in? %>
Signed in as <%= [current_user.firstname,
current_user.lastname].join("
") %>

Is the current_user method set in the controller to be a helper_method?
