Been searching for answer for the problem about req.session.user value is undefined and i finally it got the the answer for my problem,
one of the reason why the session is undefined is you need to make sure the order for the middleware in your app where comes first before the app.use(router) so that the router can execute the session middleware ...



app.use(router);


i hope it can help you guys ! cheers!

Took me a long time to figure out, but if you have the problem that your req.session.user value is undefined outside the function. Add this code:

req.session.save(function (user) {
// session saved
})

Req.session.user = user dont work . Help me !!

[adamjones]

In this example you are not persisting the session. Title of video is misleading.

[mukundpatel]

in my project it is not working.
at the login form i used action: "/dash" POST
there I set req.session.user in a promise.
after this I write res.redirect("/dash") GET
Here I checked req.session.user and get undefined value.
have you any idea.
