[Facebooker-talk] facebook_session not working for me

[David Clements]

Hey Dustin,

This is sounding a little familiar.  I am wondering if someone the
facebook_session in your sessions table( you are using db sessions right? )
doesn't have a user for some reason.   Can you blow away your session table
and see if things get better?

And also something isn't making sense here,  you say that facebook_session
doesn't return anything?  But them you say @user is nil?  If
facebook_session was nil then you would blow up before setting @user, right?
