Session cannot be saved

session()->set('test', 123);

// The result is empty
echo session()->get('test');

`$session->set('some_name', 'some_value');

Your calling it wrong...

[lonnieezell]

Nothing should have changed with the sessions recently. You should know it’s impossible for me to debug without more information up front.

• What environment are you running under?
• what session driver are you using?
• what does your configuration look like?

And last but most definitely not least - what have you done to debug it yourself and show that it’s an actual bug and not just a misconfiguration?

Lonnie,

Can we call it like that with the () or is that the helper way?

[lonnieezell]

Yes, it can be called that way. It's in the Common.php file, I believe where we provide a few helper methods for things like sesison, request, and response.

[InsiteFX]

Thank you for clarifying that for me.

Lonnie,

I just tested this on my Windows 10 Pro setting the session in the home controller and echoing it out in the welcome_message view and it all worked fine here.
//session started in BaseController Home - session()->set('some_name', 'some_value'); welcome_message - session()->get('some_name');

@InsiteFX thanks for testing.

@jinmarcus Can you verify your configuration works with, say the cache library using a Redis driver? At this point I can't confirm whether or not it's your system configuration (which is what I'm leaning toward at the moment) or an actual bug. and I know that Redis can be somewhat tricky to configure properly. Please check the docs, maybe head over to the phpredis page that's linked in the docs and do some experiments with the caching to see if you can narrow things down.

@lonnieezell A few weeks ago I was using Redis and it was working fine on Windows 10 Pro and 2 Instances of Server 2012.

I use DatabaseHandler and every time get 'new data' with this code. Data in DB write and read correct. But something get wrong..

session()->start();
if (session('logged_in') == 'true') {
	print_r(session()->get());
} else {
	session()->set(array(
		'logged_in' => 'true',
	));
	print_r('new data');
}
