Perhaps I am misunderstanding what ->flush does. In the code example below, $self->{'s'} isa CGI::Session dropping sessions in /tmp/sessions. On the otherside of this redirect, I am finally getting to my destination page (thanks to ikegami who solved the riddle of the missing hyphens at this node). However I arrive with a session which does not exist in /tmp/sessions, having lost my authentication and authorization and wind up back at a login prompt.

I have been ignoring for some time that even those sessions which do get written to /tmp/sessions, seem to ignore the fact that I've set and flush'd session parameters, presumably into those files.

Can anyone with a bit more of a handle on how to use CGI::Session shed some light on a path forward, please?

Thanks,

$self->{'s'}->param('username',$username);
$self->{'s'}->param('uid',$acct_user->{'userid'});
$self->{'s'}->param('account_code',$acct_user->{'account_code'});

$self->{'s'}->flush();
my $redirect = 1;
my $url = $self->{'cfg'}->param("www.dashboard") . '?CGISESSID=' . $se
+lf->{'s'}->id();
$html = $self->{'q'}->redirect(
             -uri => $url,
          -status => 303 );

print $self->{'s'}->header() unless($redirect);
print $html,"\n";
