Is it possible to prevent sessions from being created at all? I put session :off in my ApplicationController and something similar in my environment.rb I restarted everything etc. And sessions are still being created. So I switched from pstore to mysql.

What is the recommended amount of time to keep sessions around in the database (i store them in a sessions table). IF you get 1 million requests per day you are going to get 1 million new session entries in the DB. This would need some serious cleaning so just wondering what a safe cleanup time would be. Also does anyone know how to prevent new sessions records from being created if session

is there a way using the file_column plugin to enforce a certain content type based on regex (i.ie, /^image/) and/or filesize (150k) ? thanks adam

Hello, For some reason when i change the "environments" line in mongrel_cluster.yml to use production, ActiveRecord Sessions stop working. Changing this line to development yield the correct result. Entries in database.yml are correct, and confirmed that the sessions table exists in both environments and that production is indeed working (production.logbeing filled up). Any idea why

SessionCleanup is a routine to clear out stale sessions from within a Rails application. A Rails application creates a new session for every connection. Over time, this leads to the accumulation of hundreds or thousands of stale session files or session records (if you''re using a database). These sessions are often cleaned out manually or by the use of a cron job. Neither of these

Hi I was wondering if anyone else was having this problem or might know why its happening. I basically need to use AR sessions instead of the default pstore for sessions so I did the rake db:sessions:create to get the migrate file and then the rake db:migrate to create the session table. Also uncommented the below line in environment.rb config.action_controller.session_store =

Have you ever worked with Ajax, memoryStore and sessions in Rails? I''m trying to pass a value through a session variable to various methods. I''m calling the methods with Ajax on a submit button.

Hi All, When trying to write sessions file, I''m getting disc quota errors.

Cheers, I''ve stumbled over a bug with 1.0 and ActiveRecord store for session while migrating from pstore sessions. I created the table with `rake create_sessions_table` and set `config.action_controller.session_store = :active_record_store` in environment.rb.

Hi All I have a requirement to consume a 3rd party web service from my Rails application.

Hi, I could really use some help in understanding why, when using memoryStore, the ''new_session'' value is always set to true for every request. This isn''t the case when using Pstore. With the ''new_session'' = true, the data I have set in the session gets lost. Is there a way I can set the ''new_session'' = false so I can preserve the

I think scaffolding is great but I am always adding the <select> boxes to reference the parent association. Do you think this would be useful? just a

Morning Folks, As most of you know there were a few people who had the following three bugs: * CLOSE_WAIT: Lots of sockets in CLOSE_WAIT state. * 99% CPU: Mongrel''s getting "stuck" pegged at 99% CPU. * LEAK: Memory leak. I''ve successfully fixed these bugs or attributed them to one main cause: pstore. First, the memory leak was because of a bug in how the GC in Ruby
