Same error on Mac. Waiting for official explanation.

RE: Invalid form authenticity token on a fresh install on ubuntu 14.04 - Added by Chengru Song about 8 years ago

I’ve finally found out the reason. Memcached should be installed and kept running.

memcached -m 64 -p 11211 -u memcache -l 127.0.0.1

RE: Invalid form authenticity token on a fresh install on ubuntu 14.04 - Added by Tracy Cramer about 8 years ago

Wow. I had this and another thread open and went to sign in here to reply to this thread and got the same error. Y’all really need to get this one figured out.

RE: Invalid form authenticity token on a fresh install on ubuntu 14.04 - Added by Deleted user about 8 years ago

Same happened here with 4.0.6 on debian/wheezy. This seems to be a recurring theme.

Running our instance on CentOS 6.
In order to get a service/process to start at boot you can use the chkconfig command.

In order to see what is set to start at different runlevels:

chkconfig --list

Your result will look similar to this:

[HOST]# chkconfig --list

You can then set memcached to run at boot with the following command:

chkconfig memcached on

Once that runs, check your result:

[HOST]# chkconfig --list

You will see that the results for memcached now show as “on” for the appropriate runlevels!
This will work for RHEL/CentOS… not 100% sure about Ubuntu or other distros.

According to askubuntu.com, there’s a similar service you can use:

Hope this helps!

RE: Invalid form authenticity token on a fresh install on ubuntu 14.04 - Added by Milos Cuculovic about 7 years ago

I had the same problem, in my case, it was the memcached auto config that was wrong.

in the /etc/memcached.conf, the

-l xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Was wrong, I had to set it as

-l 127.0.0.1

I am now completely locked out of all my browser access to our open project.  Epic recurring fail.  Now I will SSH into our VM and check all these dependancies. Ruby is the death of me.
