Ruby on Rails

In rails session data is accessible only in controller. And thats how its meant to be according to MVC.

If you really need it in view you need to set an instance variable in controller and use it in view. But thats very bad and not supposed to be done. If you are accessing session data in views, i think you need to rethink your design to be more inline with mvc pattern.

this in environment.rb also tried setting value in session_store.rb

ActionController::Base.session = {
  :key         => '_suggestica_admin_session',
  :secret      => '35659c1f21207ecfeaf30aa32b72c717158eae4c41e665b7a31b26fc021890be31c8ed961cf695384030d34e3f3d0c8788d4733aac393e4003e077317c930b57'
}
