Issue happens when changing Rails version from 6.x to 7.x
Simply having this file produces an error with rails 7.x

I had the same problem and found the solution here, thanks. A small hint for those who also come across this – to override only some Devise controllers, make sure to not clear the devise_for :admin_users, ActiveAdmin::Devise.config.deep_merge(
controllers: {
sessions: 'active_admin/sessions',
# ...
}

A few things to note. I believe the approach has to be
class ActiveAdmin::Devise::SessionsController
