I'm trying to set the cookie expiration in my environment.rb file but I keep getting a syntax error on WeBRICK startup. I'm trying both of the ways listed in http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoChangeSessionOptions. FYI I'm new to rails so this is probably easy.
1) ActionController::Base.session_options[:session_expires] = Time.local(2008,"jan"))
or
2) config.action_controller.session :session_expires => Time.local(2008,"jan"))
but either way I keep getting the following syntax error:
=> Booting WEBrick... c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require': ./script/../config/../config/env ironment.rb:61: syntax error (SyntaxError) from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `require' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.3.1/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:147:in `require' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/commands/servers/webrick.rb:52 from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `require' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.3.1/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:147:in `require' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/commands/server.rb:30 from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `require' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.3.1/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:147:in `require' from script/server:3
Any ideas why??
