GenieAuthentication Broken, LoadError: Sessions not defined

[jackn11]

Whenever I try to load the GenieAuthentication package, I get the following error. This error is currently preventing me from using the Genie.jl package.

We're currently in process of updating most of the packages in the Genie ecosystem and until that finishes, some things won't work well.

What is the output of pkg> status in this project?

[jackn11]

I have included the output below. Note, I have tested it on windows and linux, and this is on a fresh install of julia on linux. This bug with Genie appears in both environments.

Please let me know if there is a way that I can avoid this error in the meantime and what the timeline is to get Genie up and running.

(@v1.7) pkg> status
      Status `~/.julia/environments/v1.7/Project.toml`
  [c43c736e] Genie v5.0.0
  [e115e502] GenieAuthentication v1.2.0

@jackn11 Thanks for the info. It's because GenieAuthentication 1.2 works with Genie 4. I have released yesterday v 1.2.1 of GenieAuthentication to limit the Genie compat to v4. For compat with Genie 5, we'll have GenieAuthentication v2 which is in process of being registered.

So right now you have 2 options: 1/ use GenieAuthentication v1.2.1 with Genie 4 2/ use GenieAuthentication#Geniev5 with Genie 5 (and update to GenieAuthentication@2 in a few days, once it's registered).

Thank you! It seems like the problem has been solved and as such I will close the issue.
