Backgroundrb devel - Jul 2006 - can''t dump: session wierdness

Hi,

I have "include DRbUndumped" in one of my model classes. Whenever my
app accesses the session I get the following:

can''t dump
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:395:in `_dump''
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/pstore.rb:349:in `dump''
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/pstore.rb:327:in `transaction''
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/cgi/session/pstore.rb:90:in `update''
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/cgi/session/pstore.rb:97:in `close''
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/cgi/session.rb:330:in `close''
<snip rest of stack trace>

Any thoughts on what is happening here?

Hey James-

	What are you trying to store in the session? Are you storing the  
entire model object or just the id? I''ve seen that error when you try  
to store something in the session that can''t be marshaled.
