A: Rails 6.1, trouble with session management, sessions behave weirdly All right, I've found out what was wrong. I was storing too many things in the session. I stored user IDs, admin IDs, participant IDs and some other things too. Now if the user used several tabs it was possible that old session contents overwrote new session content owing to the fact that browser... (more) |

A: Rails 6.1, unbelievable assets-precompile time for a smallish project There are several things to check: Unused images, Javascript or CSS styles. Importing large libraries like Bootstrap several times can slow things down very much. In my case it was a SCSS structure that had grown over nearly ten years and caused the Bootstrap styles to be imported over ten tim... (more) |

All right, I asked Claude. I admit it. And it turned out there's no limit to the problems you can cause if you import your scss files without thinking. Essentially Claude (powered by Opus 4.5) found out that I had mismanaged my scss imports to such an extent that the Bootstrap styles got compiled... (more) |

Sorry, haven't been around for a while. I meanwhile implemented a parallel session management using the database, that's how frustrated I was. No, I don't call `protect_from_forgery` on the application controller. I removed that line as I understood it's now included by default in ActionControlle... (more) |

Rails 6.1, unbelievable assets-precompile time for a smallish project I have an old Ruby on Rails project currently running on Rails 6.1. It isn't very large. I have got the old asset pipeline, 2.7 MB of Javascript in a nodemodules folder and 3.7 MB of files in the asset folder. When I build my Docker image, precompiling assets takes nearly two hours. Yes, two h... (more) |

Yes, there is. That filter chain statement says "redirected to login screen". The redirect happens because the session ist empty in spite of its having been written to before. And I have been logging the session too. It's written to correctly; the puts statement outputs the session in exactly the... (more) |

One more bit of information. I **don't** use Devise. It was there in my project all the time but I never used it. I've since uninstalled it. The error persists. Sigh. (more) |

I have a response to my question about string keys. Since I use the default session store (cookie_store), my session gets serialized as JSON. It seems it does not get restored to the original form when the call returns from the frontend. So that's all right. I've got some other feedback saying th... (more) |

| Question | — |
Rails 6.1, trouble with session management, sessions behave weirdly I am at a complete dead end with Rails sessions. I have an old Rails project. It started with Rails 3 or 4, and it is now running on Rails 6.1.7.10, the code has been updated carefully. I use sessions to keep track of logged-in users (just the user ID and the expiry). The sessions have always ... (more) |

Creating PDF from HTML on Debian Bookworm; tools? I am on a Debian Bookworm Docker image. My Rails6 project needs to convert HTML files to PDF. I used to do this with wkhtmltopdf, but wkhtmltopdf has not been supported for a long time now, and I want to update. I have tried using headless Chrome, but this is not a solution since it (a) contains... (more) |
