How to establish a new session with passport in express 4.x application? in my view if I

console.log(req.session_state)

I get "undefined"

Is it possible for Passport's session to rewrite Mozilla's session somehow?

Could you try adding { session: false } as the second parameter to the Passport's passport.authenticate method and see what happens?

Using two different session middleware modules might be actually a separate issue.

(I've just opened issue #107 because of it.)
