Title: RE: Session variable

Where are you setting the session var!?  You can test it by doing a CFDUMP on the session scope since it's a structure or by using a cfoutput....

Try using the Duplicate Function:

(<CFLOCK TIMEOUT="5" THROWONTIMEOUT="Yes" TYPE="EXCLUSIVE" SCOPE="SESSION">
        <CFSET session.uid = GetUser.uid>
          <CFSET request.uid = Duplicate(session.uid)>
    </CFLOCK>)

I setup session variable on one page:

(<CFLOCK TIMEOUT="5" THROWONTIMEOUT="Yes" TYPE="EXCLUSIVE" SCOPE="SESSION">
        <CFSET session.uid = GetUser.uid>
          <CFSET request.uid = session.uid>
    </CFLOCK>)

However, when I open another page it does not exist. How to make sure that
session var. does exist?

<CFIF (NOT IsDefined("session.uid"))>
    <CFIF IsDefined("form.action") AND (form.action IS "login")>
        <CFINCLUDE TEMPLATE="actions/login.cfm">
    </CFIF>
