Comment (by anderso):
I had the same problem, I was storing the POST dictionary (a QueryDict) in
the session:
{{{
request.session["posted"] = request.POST
}}}
This seems to have the effect of silently invalidating the session, since
when I access the session in a later request I get a clean session object.
I don't have time to investigate this further right now, I've just fixed
it this way for now:
{{{
request.session["posted"] = dict(request.POST.items())
}}}
This creates an ordinary dict and stores that instead. I'm pretty sure the
original code worked fine earlier, which is why it took me a good deal of
time before I found this error.
