Hello Alfredo,

Could you please provide where and how the current_user is being defined. 
Are you using an gem for registration/authentication or this is manually 
defined code?

Also please share the content of controller which contains the action 
'home'(for home_path) ?

Well, my guess is that either devise(
https://github.com/plataformatec/devise/) or sorcery(
https://github.com/NoamB/sorcery/) is being used. If this is the case, it 
is recommended to use following methods provided by these gems.

1. devise - :authenticate_user! - 
https://github.com/plataformatec/devise#controller-filters-and-helpers

2. sorcery - :require_login - https://github.com/NoamB/sorcery#api-summary
Thanks,
Lauree
