ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken in LetterOpenerWeb::LettersController#clear

[rafaelbiriba]

I am getting error from time to time when trying to use the clear button!

@fgrehm thoughts on what may be happening here?

Sorry, haven't used the gem in a while, @stevenharman is helping out with things these days too.

@stevenharman have you experienced that before? I might be able to set up a toy app to play with things at some point this month

I've not seen this, but my guess is Rails is being restarted between when the Letter Opener Web UI was loaded, and when the "clear" button was clicked, and thus the CSRF token isn't valid. But that's just a guess as I've not seen this myself.

FYI we used this fork to solve the issue:

But I'm not sure this would work for everyone 🤔

Heya, is there any movement on this issue? This bug is still happening for me.

Hi @jennirocket, I've not seen this behavior. As mentioned, it sounds like maybe the Rails server is being restarted or something. If someone has steps to reproduce this consistently, I can look into it.
