Rails people,

I just installed edge rails 6334

Script/server comes up okay but when I try to connect to my site
the browser spits out a 500.

I see this in the console:

=> Booting lighttpd (use 'script/server webrick' to force WEBrick)
=> Rails application starting on http://0.0.0.0:1111
=> Call with -d to detach
=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server (see config/lighttpd.conf for options)
DISPATCHER FAILSAFE RESPONSE (has cgi) Sun Mar 04 21:24:13 PST 2007
  Status: 500 Internal Server Error
  A secret is required to generate an integrity hash for cookie session data. Use config.action_controller.session = { :secret => "some secret phrase" } in config/environment.rb
    /pt/customers3/openwater/owcs/cs12/public/../config/../vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/session/cookie_store.rb:49:in `initialize'
    /Applications/Locomotive2/Bundles/standardRailsSept2006.locobundle/powerpc/lib/ruby/1.8/cgi/session.rb:273:in `initialize_without_cgi_reader'
    /pt/customers3/openwater/owcs/cs12/public/../config/../vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/cgi_ext/session_performance_fix.rb:32:in `initialize'

I edited config/environment.rb like this:


Rails::Initializer.run do |config|
  config.action_controller.session = { :secret => "some secret phrase X" }
end

I bounced the server.

I tried the site and got another 500.

Now I see this:

Processing LoginController#index (for 127.0.0.1 at 2007-03-04 21:29:27) [GET]
  Session ID: f85a3a9b2667f3e0eb1c38f55dc2ede0
  Parameters: {"action"=>"index", "controller"=>"login"}


ArgumentError (`name' required):
    /vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/cgi_ext/cookie_performance_fix.rb:44:in `initialize'
    /vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/session/cookie_store.rb:129:in `write_cookie'

Other people must be bumping into this issue; right?

I've done some searching with google; I see no evidence that others have bumped into this bug.

Any clues on how to deal with this cookie_performance_fix.rb ArgumentError ?
