Had to unescape the query string to get it working though, i.e. CGI.unescape(qs) in the updated code. When the request arrives underscores have been escaped as "%5F" and you need to convert them back to "_" for the regular expression to match the session key and place the right session_id in the options hash.

I should says that i have put in the above code snippet i environment.rb, while running the app i can view the log an d see that there is a session id produced ( i have created a column for storing the session id, still says NULL, i.e. session id does not get stored into the database), shoudn´t there be something in the models/photo.rb (in my case) that tells the database, here comes the session id.
