How to clear old sessions at OCS?

[vjj]

Hi,
I have a shared web hosting account at OCS and have managed to get my first ever rails app up and running.

I read that I should clear out old sessions, and the Agile Programmers book recommends that, as I am keeping my session data in the database, I could use script/runner to execute a script (using the updated_at column) as a cron job.

I think I need to know the path to /script/runner. One website suggests "RAILS_ENV=production ./script/runner" ....
Is this the right path for my type of account to do this?

Thanks,

Vickie

The directory you need to be in to run that is the same directory your Rails app is in. So for example, let's say your app is in:

~/rails_apps/yourapp

This would be your path. The ~ means /home/you (where you is your username)
