Here is my code:
if session[:firsttimestart].nil? else @firsttime = false end if @firsttime == true initglobals() end session[:firsttimestart]=false The problem is when I turn off the server and come back to the application, the session[:firsttimestart] is still false. It somehow stores this variable in my system without an expiration date so the iniglobals() is not called. I tried to use rake tmp:clear and it didn't work. How can I clear all the sessions that am using in my system each time I restart my server?

To clear the whole thing use the reset_session method in a controller. Resets the session by clearing out all the objects stored within and initializing a new session object.
Rails store it in server side. Session is saved in server side like key value pair (like json object)
Rails session is only available in controller or view and can use different storage mechanisms. It is a place to store data from first request that can be read from later requests. Following are some storage mechanism for sessions in Rails: ActionDispatch::Session::CookieStore - Stores everything on the client.
Cookies, Sessions and Flashes are three special objects that Rails gives you in which each behave a lot like hashes. They are used to persist data between requests, whether until just the next request, until the browser is closed, or until a specified expiration has been reached.
Whether it's DB or cookie store, use rake tmp:sessions:clear

If you are storing your sessions in a db then
rake db:sessions:clear If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
