Hi, Kind of a dumb question but when there is something in the session how do you remove it? @session.delete(:params) doesn''t work unfortunately. -- Frank Kim http://betweengo.com/ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I understand that a session is server side, and not externally visible. For this reason can it be used to store a User class (username/ hashed password) safely? Or do I need to check whats in the session against the user table every time I access a controller? Many thanks, P. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello, there is a method ActiveRecord::Base#exists? . I would like to override this method in a class ActiveRecord. Could anyone tell me how to do it? TIA -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Is there something special I need to do to access session data in a worker? I''m using an AR session store. I''ve been working with Ezra''s tutorial, modifying it a little here and there to figure it out. So I changed the progress bar to a simple count-down in the worker which sends back the count to display in the view. No big deal. But if I try to access session

As a newcomer to Asterisk, you will not be welcomed with open arms. First, you will find almost no documentation on it's features. Second, if you try to ask questions, you will be flamed and pointed to worthless how-tos and 'the wiki'. These worthless documents can only be useful for explaining how things work to those already in-the-know. Lastly, Asterisk is so bug ridden, expect

There''s got to be a simple answer to this... def logout reset_session flash[:notice] = "Logged out" redirect_to :action => ''index'' end The flash never shows up, and doesn''t seem to be in the new session. --Al Evans -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hey all, I''m rather new to Ruby and Rails (and not great with SQL), but I''m developing a ride sharing app and would like to be able to sort on something I don''t have stored. I have users, events, and rides, each of which has a zip code. Events have_many rides, and rides belong_to events. When an event is selected, I''d like to be able to show a list of

My code that acts if a session has timed out looks like this: reset_session session[:expires_at] = nil # TODO - This flash is never shown, because we redirect maybe? flash[:error] = ''Your session has timed out, please login to continue.'' # An attempt to make flash stick around, not working flash.keep redirect_to :controller => ''security'',

I am using the following code (inspired by one of the books) to check if the user''s session should have timed out. # Check to see if the user has been inactive for longer than the # expiry period. If they have, reset the session. def check_timeout if session[:expires_at] != nil @time_left = (session[:expires_at] - Time.now).to_i unless @time_left > 0

All, Version 1.0.8 of the salted hash login generator is available. This contains a few minor bug fixes with the generator plus some README clarifications. If you are successfully running with the code already, you probably do not need this. Joe

Hello, this is killing me: i can''t find a way to let idle sessions expire after a certain period of time. If they don''t expire, they will pile up until there''s no more memory available. Please, can anybody give me a hint? Basically, all I need is a hash or list with all the sessions in DRbStore. Greetings Michael Kastner

I just launched my first ROR app and i need to implement the session database cleanup. I am new to cronjobs. I have used one once but it was all copy/paste. I was hoping someone knew of a good tutorial or resource to get started here or might be able to give me a little help. I have seen a lot of posts that reference setting a cron job to clear old sessions but I am not clear on: Can you

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

Dear Rails community, As part of a programming languages/security research group at the University of Maryland, we are building some static analysis tools for Rails applications. These tools work by taking formally specified properties of interest, and then analyzing code to verify that those properties indeed hold. Using these tools, we found some security vulnerabilities in Rails, and we would

I am a newbie, but have worked through 4 or 5 tutorials. I am using InstantRails. The problem is that I cannot determine how the style is being included. I have modified the stylesheet from /public/stylesheets/, even removed it. All to no avail. The inline <style>...</style> code is still being included from somwhere. Where? What am I missing? thanks, steve -- Posted via

Guys, I''m frankly overwhelmed by the number of Rails authentication options(?) out there...from ActiveRBAC to acts_as_authenticated to LoginEngine and so on...so many options, yet on resource I''ve found really distinguishes between each. This is sad, as authentication and user management is really an area where some Rails simplicity pixie dust could be a real boon to

Sorry to be such a bother but I''m not getting this. I have two models: Emrec and Session (I''m using AR for session mgmt.) In my worker I can access the Emrec model and delete a record, AS LONG AS I don''t try to access the Session model. With the Session model access commented out as below, the Emrec record gets deleted. If I uncomment those lines, the Emrec

Greetings! I could really use some help understanding what Rails puts into the session store related to the objects it creates. I''ve found documentation on how _I_ can put / get info into it, but can''t find the docs on what _Rails_ puts into it. I''ve got a simple app that collects some data from the user, stores it in a db record, allows the user to edit it, display
