Too many pages using kaminari gem in Ruby on Rails 3.1 application

Question

I am using the kaminari pagination gem in my simple Rails 3.1 application. Problem is it creates too many pages, I end up with completly blank pages at the end of my page list.

I have experimented in the console with:

current_user.articles

Which returns me a list of 6 articles, the same as the ones being displayed in my application.

current_user.articles.count

Which returns me "8", is it this number that the number of pages is based on?

current_user.articles.length

Returns me "6"

current_user.articles.size

Returns me "8"

Is this discrepency between the number of articles causing my problem? Where is the problem, and how do I fix it please?

Answer 1

It's a bug, solution is here.

Answer 2

I guess your User#articles is not just an ordinal has_many, so we need a bit more info to see what's actually happening. Could you show us current_user.articles.scoped.to_sql?
