Problem changing cookie expiration

Rails
1

I’m trying to set the cookie expiration in my environment.rb file but I
keep getting a syntax error on WeBRICK startup. I’m trying both of the
ways listed in
http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoChangeSessionOptions. FYI
I’m new to rails so this is probably easy.

  1. ActionController::Base.session_options[:session_expires] =
    Time.local(2008,“jan”))

or

  1. config.action_controller.session :session_expires =>
    Time.local(2008,“jan”))

but either way I keep getting the following syntax error:

=> Booting WEBrick…

Any ideas why??

Thanks,

Oops looks like the Time function was throwing the error.
