I experienced Tiago's problem. I store in session a little string telling the application what's the current language (e.g 'fr' for french).
Users kept being switched back to default language because the session ends prematurely. Playing with memcache expiration time don't solve the issue. I switch to SQLSessionStore and the problem is gone. Like Tiago, I am in production environment with a bunch of mongrel behind a load balancer (apache2). As my sysadmin skill isn't that good, I didn't investigate further and I will stay with SQLSessionStore. Franck y sysadmin skilled On 2/5/07, Joey Geiger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I like this idea, do you have an example or suggestions on how you could implement it easily?
