this is the code *(controller aplication)

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  session :session_key => 'ruby_cookies'
end

*(controller when I want to create the cookies)

class RegistroController < ApplicationController
  def index
  end

  def login
    if request.post?
      p_user = User.new(params[:user])
      user   = User.find_by_nombre_and_password(p_user.nombre, p_user.password)
      if user
        session[:user_id] = user.id
        flash[:notice]    = "se ha identificado correctamente"
        redirect_to home_url
      else
        flash[:notice] = "se incorrecto psps"
        redirect_to login_url

Your code in ApplicationController doesn't belong there. It belongs in a configuration file, for example config/environment.rb, where it would read something like this:

config.action_controller.session = {     
  :session_key => 'ruby_cookies'
}

See http://guides.rubyonrails.org/configuring.html for much more detail.

Your code is really hard to read, but the issue is probably related to this line where it looks like it's trying to call a method "session" and pass it a key/value pair.

session :session_key => 'ruby_cookies'

This doesn't appear to be within any sort of controller action. Normally you would set a session value with session[:my_value] = 'value' and read it with session[:my_value], just like a normal hash.
