Sebastjan Trepca commented on MODPYTHON-111:
--------------------------------------------

OK, I understand and agree with your but then someone should change the 
documentation because now it says:
"
A session will timeout if it has not been accessed for more than timeout, which 
defaults to 30 minutes. An attempt to load an expired session will result in a 
``new'' session.
"
>From this line I thought accessing the session means that I execute the load() 
>method, but I was apparantly wrong and spent few hours debugging my 
>application and then few hours more for debugging mod_python.

Can someone then please edit that line in docs and be more explicit about what 
that "accessing" means so people won't be confused when session will suddenly 
expire?

> When you read or access session it does not set new accessed time so it 
> eventually dies(depends on the timeout).
> It only sets the accessed time when you save the session and that is not how 
> sessions normally function(at least not on all other systems). IMHO it should 
> set its accessed time when it was actually accessed and not only when saved.
