Rails - Aug 2007 - Calls between methods of application.rb

I have a set_lang() and a write_to_log() method in
app/controllers/application.rb

set_lang() calls write_to_log().

Nothing happens. I should expect that write_to_log is either called or
an exception is thrown. However, it seems that it is silently ignored.
To prove this I called write_to_log00(), which does not exist. Still
the same behavior.

Is this normal?

To make things more specific, here is my code:

# file: app/controllers/application.rb

	def write_to_log(msg)
	  	File.open("logfile.txt", "a") do |file|
			now = DateTime.now
	  		file.puts("#{now}\t#{msg}")
	  	end
	end


	def set_lang
		code = params[:id]
		if code != "el" && code != "en" && code !=
"de"
				code = "el"
		end
		@lang = code

		write_to_log("set_lang\t" + code)

		cookies[:lang] 			{
				:value => code,
				:expires => Time.now + 1.year,
				:path => ''/''
			}
		# redisplay the page in the new language
		redirect_to  request.env["HTTP_REFERER"]
	end
