Hi,
Your sessions (by default in cookie) needs to be moved to Active record
store or memcache store to fix this issue.
For Databased sessions:
config.action_controller.session_store = :active_record_store
You need to create the session table as below
rake db:sessions:create
rake db:migrate
OR
For Memcache sessions:
config.action_controller.session_store = :mem_cache_store
Also you need to setup a mem cache server and configure it as below
config.cache_store = :mem_cache_store, 'localhost', '127.0.0.1:11211',
{:namespace => 'myapp123'}
