Is there such a thing that I could use to store sessions in the DB instead of in a cookie so that I can ensure users will be able to access their session data even across several load balancers? We use totally stateless machines here at work and I am worried about deploying a rails app in production that uses a volitile session stored on the machine. Any help is great!

I am using active record sessions and everything works fine. I am integrating it with phpbb however so i need some extra fields populated in the session table. In application.rb i put a before_filter to update the session table I have a model for the sessions $ more app/models/session.rb class Session < ActiveRecord::Base set_primary_key "session_id" set_table_name

...ran rake create_sessions_table to create the sessions table. But instead of just using the standard table, I wanted something fancier. I would like to know who is currently logged in, so I added the field user_id to the sessions table. In the Rails wiki (http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoChangeSessionStore) I read that I could change the user_id in the sessions table by using @session.model.user_id = @session[:user].id . model is a method available when using active_record_store. This all works beautifully, at least in development mode. However, the trouble starts when I run a functional test....

I''m running a simple WEBrick server for a small rails website. I probably get less than 100 hits per hour. I just looked in /tmp on the server and there are over 10,000 ruby_sess.* temp files containing: " hash{" flashIC:''ActionController::Flash::FlashHash{: @used{ They''ve piled up so much that I can''t even rm -f ruby*. Bash complains

I just notices my app was down, and in the log file were lots of these: No space left on device - ../config/../tmp/sessions//ruby_sess.898b1cf95e14f8e3 So i figured that i had too many sessions. I went through and deleted the sessions and then in a few minutes, the site was back up again. Can anyone explain this? Did I do the right thing? Is there a way I can tell my app to accept more

Hi All, When trying to write sessions file, I''m getting disc quota errors. Looking into the sessions folder, I see: -rw------- 1 www www 188 Aug 2 21:03 ruby_sess.d39a2c77b4750b72 -rw-r--r-- 1 www www 0 Aug 2 21:03 ruby_sess.d39a2c77b4750b72.tmp I''m guessing the the tmp should not be there, as it does not show on my dev setup. I''m using rails (1.1.1)

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 it''s faster, but it''s implementation is different enough that I can''t figure out how to make it work with: config.action_controller.session_store = :mem_cache_s...
