Gae utility and use Session Object (http://gaeutilities.appspot.com/) but some time this object create 2 sessions instead 1 session … here’s code

def index(request):

     aSWrap = SWrap(SWrap.createSession())
     ....
      def login(request):

     aSWrap = SWrap(SWrap.createSession())
     ....


      class SWrap(object):

   @classmethod    
   def createSession():

     return Session(cookie_name='my_cookie',session_expire_time=7200)

and for setting session no expiration or really long expiration…enter code here

    I suggest using a different sessions library. Check out this comparison of the available sessions libraries for GAE.

    I’d recommend gae-sessions – it presents an API almost identical to the library you are currently using, but it is much faster and shouldn’t give you headaches like the bug you’ve encountered above.

    Disclaimer: I wrote gae-sessions, but I’m not the only one who would recommend it. Here is a recent thread discussing sessions on the google group for GAE python.
