found some more infos to this problem https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/42231

arpu avatar Jan 22 '22 14:01 arpu

It looks like a devise issue, right? I'll keep it open until it's fixed on their end. Thanks for the references.

waiting-for-dev avatar Jan 24 '22 05:01 waiting-for-dev

@arpu I ran into the exact same problem and I found for me it seemed to be related to the :timeoutable module being included in the devise method in the model. I just removed :timeoutable and then the error didn't happen any more.

russellbrown avatar Feb 04 '22 18:02 russellbrown

Hey @russellbrown can you point me to the code line?

arpu avatar Feb 08 '22 20:02 arpu

@arpu Sure, I just removed :timeoutable from the model I'm authenticating (in my case User):

class User < ApplicationRecord
  devise :database_authenticatable, :recoverable, :rememberable, :validatable, :lockable, :trackable, :timeoutable, :jwt_authenticatable, jwt_revocation_strategy: self
end

... and the error disappeared. I had only included :timeoutable as standard based on previous projects but I realised JWT expires the tokens anyway so I didn't really need Devise's implementation.

Hope that helps!

russellbrown avatar Feb 08 '22 20:02 russellbrown

@russellbrown I don't have :timeoutable included however i'm still getting this error. This is how my user model looks like

class User < ApplicationRecord
  devise :database_authenticatable, :registerable,
    :recoverable, :rememberable, :validatable,
    :jwt_authenticatable,
    jwt_revocation_strategy: JwtDenylist
end

any thoughts here? Thanks

cchoi94 avatar Feb 11 '22 01:02 cchoi94

@cchoi94 Oh ok, I don't know then, I just know it worked for me. What if you try removing rememberable? It uses cookies so that may also be causing the sessions issue. I know I had rememberable in my devise method but I also override devise's SessionsController so that may have bypassed it.

russellbrown avatar Feb 12 '22 18:02 russellbrown

@russellbrown thanks for getting back. Apologies I ended up moving ahead and although this is not a solution, I got everything to behave correctly by downgrading my rails to v6 rather v7.

On another note, I also just changed my working devise to an m1 pro, so not sure if the shift in devices may be a contributor to the issue.

@russellbrown @cchoi94 seems that you have moved on, but got my session storage to work on 7.0.2.4 by putting following code in config/application.rb

ActionDispatch::Request::Session::DisabledSessionError (Your application has sessions disabled. To write to the session you must first configure a session store):

Workaround if you do not want to enable session_store and set it to cookie:

controller/concerns/rack_session_fix.rb

module RackSessionFix
  extend ActiveSupport::Concern
  class FakeRackSession < Hash
    def enabled?
      false
    end
  end
  included do
    before_action :set_fake_rack_session_for_devise
    private
    def set_fake_rack_session_for_devise
      request.env['rack.session'] ||= FakeRackSession.new
    end
  end
end

controller/registrations_controller.rb

class RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
  include RackSessionFix
  ...
end

This one worked for me by inserting as follows:

config.middleware.use ActionDispatch::Cookies

Hi, I am facing this error Minitest::UnexpectedError: ActionDispatch::Request::Session::DisabledSessionError: Your application has sessions disabled. To write to the session you must first configure a session store in testing environment. I am trying to do a simple assertion like

  test "should get index" do
    sign_in users(:one)
    get movies_url, as: :json
    assert_response :success
  end

but even having both workarounds (the one in application.rb and the other having RackSessionFix.rb) is not working.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Setup:

  • devise (4.8.1)
  • devise-jwt (0.10.0)
  • rails (7.0.4)
  • ruby-3.1.3

in canse anyone else is struggling with this, you dont need to do any temp patching or enable cookie storre/session store.

This worked for me

config.session_store :cookie_store, key: '_interslice_session'
config.middleware.use ActionDispatch::Cookies
config.middleware.use config.session_store, config.session_options

config.api_only = true

The above could lead to potential bug when looking at the current_user as the session will only persist the last use that logged in and not the bearer token's user. (ie: link a service provider to a user)

class CurrentUserController < ApplicationController
  before_action :authenticate_user!

  def index
    render json: current_user, status: :ok #<---- should only return the auth user not the last user that devise called sign_in
  end
end

Solution:

#application.rb
config.session_store :disabled

Users::RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
rotected

  def sign_up(resource_name, resource)
    #by pass the session store on the default implementation
    sign_in resource, store: false <------- THIS
  end

you can pretty much call sign_in :user, store: false anywhere you need and it will properly work, just dont forget the let devise know it should transmit the JWT in the header for yourr custom auth route

for example:

API::V1::NextAuthController < ApplicationController

def handle_auth(kind)  
    if service.present?
      service.update(service_attributes) 
    else
      user.services.create(service_attributes)
    end
      sign_in @user, store: false <----- THIS
    end
end

# devise.rb
jwt.dispatch_requests = [
      ["POST", %r{^/login$}],
      ["POST", %r{^/api/v1/nextauth$}] 
   
    ]

Hopefully this saves people some time in the future 👍

@russellbrown @cchoi94 seems that you have moved on, but got my session storage to work on 7.0.2.4 by putting following code in config/application.rb

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqizV5l1yFE @ 10:40 (references following ruby documentation: https://api.rubyonrails.org/v6.0.3.3/classes/ActionDispatch/Session/CookieStore.html#method-c-new))

config.session_store :cookie_store, key: '_interslice_session'
    config.middleware.use ActionDispatch::Cookies
    config.middleware.use config.session_store, config.session_options

This works for me. Thx ! Any news about an official fix ?

I came late to the party, but I found @Dujota's solution being cleaner, and I found a way to centrally configure store: false, instead of overwriting each methods separately that might need it:

#config/initializers/devise.rb
Devise.setup do |config|
  # ... other config
  
  config.warden do |warden|
    warden.scope_defaults :user, store: false  # <---- This will use the config even if it's not passed to the method opts
    warden.scope_defaults :admin, store: false # <---- You need to configure it for each scope you need it for
    # you might also want to overwrite the FailureApp in this section
  end
end

This way you don't need to hack the session store in rack, it's enough to disable it altogether (if you don't use an api_only application already):

# config/application.rb
module YourApp
  class Application < Rails::Application
    # ... other config
    
    config.session_store :disabled
  end
end

@Dujota / @janospapp 's solution also worked for me.

It was enough to add...

config.warden do |warden|
  warden.scope_defaults :user, store: false
end

... into config/initializers/devise.rb and the error went away and I was able to successfully sign_in / sign_out.

Hi, I am facing this error Minitest::UnexpectedError: ActionDispatch::Request::Session::DisabledSessionError: Your application has sessions disabled. To write to the session you must first configure a session store in testing environment. I am trying to do a simple assertion like

  test "should get index" do
    sign_in users(:one)
    get movies_url, as: :json
    assert_response :success
  end

but even having both workarounds (the one in application.rb and the other having RackSessionFix.rb) is not working.

Any ideas? Thanks.

I am also facing this issue. My development server does not throw any issues and works as expected when running the app using this addition to the application.rb:

config.session_store :cookie_store, key: '_interslice_session'
config.middleware.use ActionDispatch::Cookies
config.middleware.use config.session_store, config.session_options

config.api_only = true

but when running rspec, my tests still seem to face the session problem:

Api::V1::Rooms PUT /rooms/:id when valid doesn't clear rates when its not present
Failure/Error: put "/api/v1/rooms/#{room.id}", headers: user_creation[:auth_headers], params: {}

ActionDispatch::Request::Session::DisabledSessionError:
   Your application has sessions disabled. To write to the session you must first configure a session store

By the way, here's a link to the Rails docs regarding session.

I've also run rails middleware for ENV=development and ENV=test to confirm that the session is included on test: coworks-api 2023-03-26 13-03-57

Even viewing the config while breakpointed in a test it block shows me the session should be enabled:

docker compose run app bundle exec guard 2023-03-27 08-10-41

Anyone have any tips?

Update: Eventually, I ended up narrowing the issue down to sign_in user which I was doing to create a authenticated user before calling the API in Integration tests. Removing that line wasn't actually needed and my tests are passing now.

For some reason, neither

Devise.setup do |config|
  ...
  
  config.warden do |manager|
    manager.scope_defaults :user, store: false
  end
  
  ...
end

nor

module HasRackSession
  extend ActiveSupport::Concern

  class FakeRackSession < Hash
    def enabled?
      false
    end
  end

  included do
    before_action :set_fake_rack_session_for_devise

    private

    def set_fake_rack_session_for_devise
      p "\n\n Hello \n\n"
      request.env["rack.session"] ||= FakeRackSession.new
    end
  end
end

work for me until I changed the navigational_formats inside Devise's config

Devise.setup do |config|
  ...
  
  config.navigational_formats = []
  
  ...
end

I don't even know what this does 🤔 Would someone have an idea ?

It seems that I had a problem with production environment due to the replica database because when I commented the following lines the problem disappeared:

  # DB Replica
  config.active_record_uses_replica_for_reading = true
  config.active_record.database_selector = { delay: 2.seconds }
  config.active_record.database_resolver = ActiveRecord::Middleware::DatabaseSelector::Resolver
  config.active_record.database_resolver_context = ActiveRecord::Middleware::DatabaseSelector::Resolver::Session

What worked for me was to change the order of the middleware like mentioned here like this:

    config.api_only = true

    config.session_store :cookie_store, key: "_interslice_session"
    config.middleware.insert_before Rack::Head, ActionDispatch::Session::CookieStore, config.session_options
    config.middleware.insert_before ActionDispatch::Session::CookieStore, ActionDispatch::Cookies

I hope it helps.

This worked for me by adding this line config.navigational_formats = [] in devise.rb

Thanks, this worked for me using Rails 7.0.3 and Ruby 3.1.1

Still a bug, but at least this solution has worked for me in an api_only app (in dev, haven't yet configured tests which looks like it may be an issue?)....
