I’m seeing different behavior from a development box and a production  
box running the same code with the same data. Just as a simple  
example, I added the below to the user controller to sort the user list:

def list  
@content\_columns = user\_content\_columns\_to\_display  
@user\_pages, @all\_users = paginate :user, :per\_page =\> 10, :order  
=\> ‘login’  
end

This works fine in development, but doesn’t do anything in production.

I also noticed that at some point recently, I lost the ability as an  
admin to modify other user accounts.

Does anybody have any insight? I have been digging around and haven’t  
come up with anything.

Rails 1.1.6  
fresh installs of engines, login engine and user engine

Thanks in advance,
