Hi,  
I installed rails 2.3.5 and ruby 1.8.7 and downloaded the  
rfacebook plugin to create a simple facebook app and then when I ran  
some of the rake tasks I ran into problem like “undefined const  
CGI::Session” and when I googled about it, it said this was a change  
in Rails 2.3 where CGI::Session was changed to  
ActionController::Session. But the rfacebook plugin still uses  
CGI::Session. So what I did was I changed the CGI::Session to  
ActionController::Session but it still gave me the same error. Any  
ideas what can be done? Is there a way to use the old CGI::Session ?
