Hello, I know how to share sessions between subdomains in PHP. Can anyone please guide me as to how I can share sessions using Ruby? Where can I set the value of domain for which the cookie is set? I would like for a user to login on the home page and then go to blog.home.com and not have to login again. Any guidance/pointers are appreciated. Thanks''

The Agile book seems to say I should specify this as follows, probably in the environments.rb: ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS[:database_manager] = CGI::Session::ActiveRecordStore BUT the environments.rb file would have me Un-Comment this: config.action_controller.session_store = :active_record_store Anyway, I''ve tried both, and in both cases it generates new sessions all too quickly, so that no page see...

...) that takes a subdomain, username, password, authenticates, then redirects to http://#{subdomain}.mysite.com. I need to set the session_domain option (to the subdomain) dynamically so the cookie can be read when the user arrives after the redirect. I know I could do ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS.update( :session_domain => ''example.com'') if I wanted to share sessions across domains, but I do not want to do this as I want to allow users to be logged on to multiple subdomains at the same time. Any ideas? Thanks, Zack

from the Agile Book, i see i can set the absolute session expiry time via: ActionController::CGIRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS[:session_expires] however, I don''t see anything about what the actual default setting is when a session is created. also, is there a way to set the expiration to happen when the browser is closed? in PHP, this can be accomplished using session.cookie_lifetime 0 in php.ini can this be...

I''ve been looking around for how to store the session ID in a cookie. The "Agile Web Development with Rails" books seems to indicate that this is done by default with Rails. But I don''t see a cookie being set in my browser. (yeah, they''re enabled) I poked through the RForum code to find something referencing "cookies" but nothing came up. Does

Hi, I put the following in my environment.rb file: ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS.update (:database_manager => CGI::Session::ActiveRecordStore) Runnning WEBrick via "script/server" and trying to load any page served by a controller results in an error like the following: #<ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: ERROR: null value in column "id" violates...

...'s still not exactly DRY nor elegant is it ? Instead I would propose as similar scheme to the ''session_key'' override functionality that I use a lot. ## add a custom session ID for this site (when developing with many apps on local system) ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS[:session_key] = ''00_shows_at_top_of_sorted_cookies_list'' Whereby we could define the DEFAULT_CURRENCY_TYPE in the environment.rb or something similar. However, an app could also need to be localized, ie I might want the default currency to be ? and someone else might want...

Hi all - I am trying to get rails to use memcache for sessions and fragment caching. I''d also like to use the same connection for general caching of this and that. I''m following the instructions here: http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoChangeSessionStore and hitting a brick wall. I''m using the new memcache-client since from what I''ve read

Hey, so - I''ve been fiddling about and fell in to use Joe''s simple-yet- painful SHLG (I shouldn''t complain... not at least I have time to produce one :)). I just recently plugged in memcache, and- it''s not preserving my login. I traced the execution and it sets the output of User.authenticate (a user AR object) into @session[''user'']

Hi We have a rails application deployed and working fine. Along with this, we are planning to add "Opinion" forum. The url of the forum will be like http://forum.mymainsite.com Is it possible to share the session (that is, if the user is already logged in on the main site, he need not log in again on the forum section). Is it possible to add the ''opinion'' as a

I am using the restful authentication plugin and am always prompted to login if a different subdomain is accessed. I have found a couple rails "solutions", but none of them seem to work: # development.rb 1. ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS[:session_key] = ".localhost" 2. ActionController::Base.session_options[:key] = ".localhost" Does anyone have a way that works?

...ferent platforms, I definitively find the documentation not enough precise. But those are my thoughts and I hope somebody can point my out to the good way to find something. For example, I currently look for information about session managment, and find the code : ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS.update (:prefix => "something") Wow ! What''s this ? I take the rails doc and could not find CgiRequest, neither DEFAULT_xxx. Following it''s in the ActionController, I find this module is in the actionpack (by search it manually in the files of the Rails doc). The...

Hi all, In a Rails 1.0 project, I successfully changed the sessions storage location to <RAILS-ROOT>/tmp, by adding ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS.update(:tmpdir => File.join(RAILS_ROOT, ''/tmp'')) in environment.rb Problem: -------- I tried to use the same trick in an EdgeRails project, but it doesn''t work : server error, with no msg in the logs.

...then the session file is created. I see this behavior in both the development (WEBrick) and production (Apache) environments. After reading <http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoChangeSessionOptions>, I tried this as a workaround in environment.rb: ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS.update(:disabled => true) That didn''t help. It appears that this problem occurs after the render_* methods, while ActionController is building the response, so I''m not sure how to workaround it. FYI, I found this problem because of a bad image URL that someone had entere...

...ried to hackaround with reading the _session_id form the cookie and sending it together with the fileupload POST from the flashplayer to the webserver. But how can i retrieve the session based on the session_id at my controller ? I tried to add this to my action: ::ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS.update(:session_id => params[:session_id]) and I hoped that the session for the request gets created based on params[:session_id], but this is not the case. So how do I retrieve from within an action a session from the session-storage based on a sesison_id ? -- Roberto Saccon - http://rsaccon...
