Edge rails sessions not getting stored to database

Josh, thanks for the quick reply. I have a git fork of it, as I suspected as much. Any pointers so I can make the changes? That way I can push it so when 2.3 comes out SqlSessionStore will be compatible.

My fork is at:

http://github.com/nateware/sql_s...

If you inherit from ActionController::Session::AbstractStore, you just need to supply 2 methods: get_session and set_session.

See the AR session store for a good example.

http://github.com/josh/rails/blo...

After that should session store "should" be compatible with any rack application, merb, sinatra, etc.

Thanks for the pointer, but Josh, I'm stumped. I tried following that class and rewrote SqlSessionStore as follows:

class SqlSessionStore < ActionController::Session::AbstractStore

cattr_accessor :session_class
self.session_class = SqlSession

class << self
  # Rack-ism for Rails 2.3.0
  SESSION_RECORD_KEY = 'rack.session.record'.freeze

  # For Rack compatibility (Rails 2.3.0+)
  def get_session(env, sid)
    sid ||= generate_sid
    session = session_class.find_session(sid)
    env[SESSION_RECORD_KEY] = session
    [sid, session.data]
  end

  # For Rack compatibility (Rails 2.3.0+)
  def set_session(env, sid, session_data)
    session = env[SESSION_RECORD_KEY]
    session.update_session(session_data)
  end
end

end

Then in config/environment.rb:

config.action_controller.session_store = :sql_session_store SqlSessionStore.session_class = OracleSession

No worky.

What am I missing?

FYI I pushed my (unstable) Rack session mods to my git fork:

git://github.com/nateware/sql_session_store.git

By the way, the oddity is that I would think setting:

 config.action_controller.session_store = :sql_session_store
 SqlSessionStore.session_class = OracleSession

Should, if the SqlSessionStore class is not implemented correctly, raise an error like:

 Undefined method 'get_session' for #<SqlSessionStore:Class>

But that doesn't happen. In fact it seems like SqlSessionStore is never called by the session store callbacks??

get_session and set_session should be instance methods, not class methods. You can also delete all the CGI api methods, they are unless now. So close, delete, restore, etc can be removed.
