OK, I've confirmed it with $this->Session->valid(). The problem is the redirects to the login page. Let me explain:
1. We're logged in. This creates a session. 2. Session expires. 3. We try to access somewhere else, we jump into beforeFilter(), where Session is invalid. 4. We are then redirected to the login page, back into beforeFilter(), this time with a fresh new session and no flash messages. You can test with this dirt simple example: 1. Set sessions in core to expire quickly (for testing) 10 seconds. 2. Try to access restricted area (eg. Pages). You enter the beforeFilter() for the pages controller, with a new session. Then forwarded to the Users controller on the same session. Everything is fine. Flash Displays. 3. Let session expire. 4. Point browser to restricted area (not using the back button). Session is expired so, flash msg. not written properly. 5. Redirected to Users controller for login on fresh session with no flash. Any ideas?
