Fellow Monasterians,

This is a strange one and I'm at a loss after lots of experimenting.

I'm using CGI::Application::Plugin::Session in combo with FlexMySQL to save sessions to the DB. The following code does not save the account_id to the session.

$self->session->param('account_id' => $account_id);

[download]

But when I add some debugging code or Dumper after the line, e.g.,

$self->session->param('account_id' => $account_id);

open (DEBUG, ">>/home/bradc/debug/debug.txt") or die "errors: $!";
print DEBUG "acct_id: ".$self->session->param('account_id')."\n";
close DEBUG;

[download]

everything is fine—the account_id has a value.

Does this have something to do with the printing? Is there a simple explanation for this that I'm not seeing. Thanks.
