Source of the Error

The version of Devise you're using calls a method named reference. https://github.com/heartcombo/devise/blob/c82e4cf47b02002b2fd7ca31d441cf1043fc634c/lib/devise.rb#L320-L323

def self.ref(arg)
  ActiveSupport::Dependencies.reference(arg)
  Getter.new(arg)
end

The method existed in Rails 6: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/6-0-stable/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb#L651-L653

It has been removed in Rails 7: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/main/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb

This line from Rails 7.0.0.alpha1 changelog explains.

Private internal classes of ActiveSupport::Dependencies have been deleted, like ActiveSupport::Dependencies::Reference, ActiveSupport::Dependencies::Blamable, and others.

https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/main/activesupport/CHANGELOG.md#rails-700alpha1-september-15-2021

Options

Wait for Devise to release a version that's compatible with Rails 7, or use Devise with the previous Rails release.
