Dear Good sir. You will very seriously remove the first "slash from tmp" otherwise it will Look to your the Root of your server and not the Root of your "rails app". so "do it" like this: find tmp/ -name "ruby_sess*" -cmin +60 -exec rm \{} \; Thank you and trying to not be such a fucking stupid next time. Your friend, Kebab King from Jackson Heights
