Permission denied on my windows xp sp2 development system

Hello all,

I want to test rails on my development system. I use Eclipse with the
Aptana Rails Support. But when I start webrick and want to see the
aplication properties I get an Error.

Permission denied - ./script/…/config/…/tmp/sessions//ruby_sess.
6d3884b6a1a60c03.tmp or ./script/…/config/…/tmp/sessions//ruby_sess.
6d3884b6a1a60c03.new

or so. This is very stange because ruby_sess.6d3884b6a1a60c03.tmp
exist and an file with the name ruby_sess.6d3884b6a1a60c03
without .tmp. So the system has permissions.
I am Admin on thies maschine so the program has my privileges.

Please help me I am a rails noob.

I think ruby can’T rename the session file but why???

have you solved the problem? may you share the solution if you solved,
please?

the directory exists and in the sessiondir are files with .tmp and
without but no file with .new so I think ruby can create files but not
rename it. So ruby can’t rename foo.tmp -> foo.new or so. And I don’t
know why. can the Files be locked from the Filesystem(ntfs), but I think
I can not be the only own how has this prolem if this is the reason.

you should probably look at using database sessions anyway.
rake db:sessions:create should do that for you
then in /app/config/environment.rb uncomment the line about using
“ActiveRecordSessionStore” or something of that sort.

I will test is.

Hi

I solved the problem by renaming the file. I tried to find out whether
the tmp/sessions directory exist or not. In that directory, I saw one
file (ruby_sess.a122324b45535c6556defg). I renamed this file into
ruby_sess. When I run my application, it works successfully. When I go
and look at that directory again, there is a new file
(ruby_sess.z56a768d89g00ghgl) created. I hope it will help you too.
