undefines method utc in reset_password_period_valid? method

undefines method utc for String. Recovering password, "reset_password_sent_at" variable contains a String value instead of Datetime value.

reset_password_sent_at is supposed to be a date time column in the DB, are yours setup like that?

Also, Devise only sets this value here:

devise/lib/devise/models/recoverable.rb

Line 93 in e2242a9

self.reset_password_sent_at = Time.now.utc

. Are you not setting it manually somewhere in the app?

Thank you @carlosantoniodasilva. It was precisely that. By mistake, the reset_password_sent_at field was created as a string type.
