before_filter :login_required halts http 200 for java upload app for ruby on rails

Hi there,

In my PhotoController in ruby on rails i have

def PhotoController
before_filter :login_required

and when I put that there I get

Filter chain halted as [:login_required] rendered_or_redirected.

And the java upload app complains in an unsuccessful pop-up.

Now if i remove this 'before_filter'

It works fine. (upload complete)

In my method
def upload_files

end

It ends with
render :text=>"" to return a http 200 as a previous poster pointed out.

Anyone have any idea of how to resolve this?

Also I'm setting the cookie here..

function ImageUploader_BeforeUpload(){

if (iu.getControlType() == "Java")
getImageUploader("ImageUploader").AddCookie(
'_hcw_session=<%=cookies[:_hcw_session]%>');

}

BUt it doesn't seem to be set when looking at tcpmon...?

Hello,

Do you experience this problem using ActiveX control (IE browser)?
If it is working properly, I suppose that you pointed not all cookie variables in AddCookie method. If you have several cookies you should separate them by ";" without spaces.
