Getting rid of ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken (Rails 3, webrick, devise)

Question

Cannot figure this one out. Developing Rails 3.0.3 app using Devise 1.1.5, running locally on WEBrick 1.3.1. Out of nowhere I get a

ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken

error on login (successful or not) and registration. The app is deployed to Heroku, and works fine in production. It also works fine on another dev's machine, running on Apache/Passenger. No matter what I do I can't get rid of this error locally (and it ran fine several days ago until this error popped up mid-development).

I've checked out fresh code, restarted machine, run on different ports, wiped out db, everything I can think of. No caching in the app.

Application trace is blank. Full trace below:

The other thing you might try is to add:

config.action_controller.allow_forgery_protection = false

into your development environment file.
