Meteor Route dispatch never rendered warning

For route:

Router.route('/logout', function(){
    var self = this;
    Meteor.logout(function(err) {
        if (err) {
            console.log('Error loggin out!');
        }
        self.redirect('/');
    });
});

I receive this warning:

Route dispatch never rendered. Did you forget to call this.next() in an onBeforeAction?

What is problem?

Solution

  • It can take time to log the user out. You need a template to display during this. A route cannot exist without a template with iron router. Or at least iron router is not designed to work without one.

    Your html:

    <template name="logout">
    Logging you out. Please wait...
</template>

    Your route:

    Router.route('/logout', function(){
    Meteor.logout(function(err) {
        if (err) console.log('Error loggin out!');
        Router.go("/")
    });

    this.render("logout"):
});
