Rails - Feb 2007 - gsub error after switching from session to cookies

I have the following code where I''m trying to set some cookies after a
successful login:

        cookies[:user_id] = { :value => user.id, #this is line 27
                              :expires => 18.hours.from_now }

        cookies[:user_role] = { :value => user.role,
                                :expires => 18.hours.from_now }

        cookies[:user_name] = { :value => user.name,
                                :expires => 18.hours.from_now }


I get the following error message:

private method `gsub'' called for 1:Fixnum

...

#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/controllers/login_controller.rb:27:in `login''

This worked fine when I used session[:user_id], now that I''ve switched
it to a cookie, it''s not working.

Thanks!

Found the answer about 5 seconds after I posted.

Should have been like this:


cookies[:user_id] = user.id.to_s
