Does anyone know a way to dynamically change the session_domain option of ActionController::CgiRequest? I want to have a login section on an index page (www.example.com) 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

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

when setting it in my environment.rb config.action_controller.session = { :session_key => ''_myapp_session'', :secret => ''3a64394bb895f1f05e0c07f71127d93d'' } I cannot get it back in the script/console .. :session_key=>"_session_id" !!! why ? >> ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS =>

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"

Hi all, Apologies in advance if I got this one wrong, I''m still just a newbie ;-) Going through the Apple ADC RoR tutorial it suddenly occurred to me that the ''number_to_currency()'' helper method was not DRY streamlined. Scenario:: The "number_to_currency()" methods options hash works great when I need to dynamically display different currencies when I

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

Has anyone else experienced this strange behavoir with sharing sessions across subdomains? I have in development.rb ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS.update(:session_domain => ''.localhost.com'') If I create a session at foo.localhost.com then go bar.localhost.com a session is created (with host localhost.com) and everything works fine. But if I then go

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

I''m building a session-less application and have set "session :off" in the base controller (ApplicationController in application.rb). Unfortunately, I still see session files appearing in /tmp/ruby_sess.* -- and the cause of these files is when a routing error occurs. Whenever a bad URL comes in, for example <http://localhost:3000/not/a/chance/in/hell>, the

I am trying to mix Flash and RoR (for fileupload without pagerefresh) Unfortunately the requests originating from the flashplayer do not have the right sessionid. So I tried 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''m working on a rails app that stores files in a database and allows users do download them again. But when a file starts with newlines they get lost in the process and the browser marks the download as failed because the received filesize is smaller then the expected filesize (the difference is exactly the newlines missing). To reproduce this place something like this an a

The new version of cached_model features bug fixes and tests! Bugs fixed: Updating a model no longer stores associations into the cache. This could cause strange, hard-to-debug bugs when an invalid set of assocations was retrieved along with a cached model. Reloading a model refreshes the cache. When CachedModel::find can''t understand query params and a single result is

Hi, I''m trying to use mem_cache_store for sessions. I have installed the server and the gem and have added the following to my config/environment.rb: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> memcache_options = { :c_threshold => 10_000, :compression => true, :debug => false, :namespace =>

Hi all, I have a problem with expiring sessions in the case with using mem_cache_store. I''ve been using ActiveRecord session store till now and expired them with SQL query.

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

Hi - Just downloaded and installed the memcache-client and cached_model gems and am trying to test it out on a development setup. I added this to my environment/development.rb CACHE = MemCache.new :c_threshold => 10_000, :compression => true, :debug => true, :namespace => ''eztrip'',

Hi everyone, I''m looking for some +1''s for a bug fix patch I submitted: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10082 The problem is that CgiRequest#host_with_port() overrides AbstractRequest#host_with_port() and does''nt use port_string() with standard_port() care. So I created patch to rename CgiRequest#host_with_port() to host_with_port_without_standard_port_handling().
