connect session not working about union

[PatrickHeneise]

I have the same problems and suspect passport.js is not working because of this either.

When making the change to connect, I get an error:

node.js:201
throw e; // process.nextTick error, or 'error' event on first tick
^
TypeError: Cannot read property 'encrypted' of undefined
at ServerResponse. (/Users/pat/Sites/app/node_modules/connect/lib/middleware/session.js:226:31)

it's working now.
Thanks

Having similar problems using the following code which is straight from the connect docs.

var flatiron = require('flatiron')
var connect = require('connect')
var app = flatiron.app
app.use(flatiron.plugins.http);
app.http.before.push(connect.cookieParser('keyboard cat')); // secret here
app.http.before.push(connect.session({ cookie: { maxAge: 60000 }})); // no secret here
app.http.before.push(function(req, res) {
      var sess = req.session;
      if (sess.views) {
        res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/html');
        res.write('<p>views: ' + sess.views + '</p>');
        res.write('<p>expires in: ' + (sess.cookie.maxAge / 1000) + 's</p>');
        res.end();
        sess.views++;
      } else {
        sess.views = 1;
        res.end('welcome to the session demo. refresh!');
      }
})
app.start(4444)

You just always see "welcome to the session demo. refresh!" when using connect 2.3.3 and node 0.6.19.

In my case no cookies are being set. Anyone experienced this before?

I think cookies are set during res.setHeader.
You should set res.setHeader(...) before the "if"

The problem had to do with the version of something. I may have been on flatiron 0.2.1 or been using an older version of union. Wiping my package.json and node_modules and re-installing the latest of each requirement solved the problem.
