Have you set the cookie.path?

[Deactivated User]

try to set cookie.path = "/"

[vincent.brule]

Sorry, I did a mistake in my question, I use header instead of cookie

[Deactivated User]

What do you mean by “the clear didn’t work”?

[Deactivated User]

Are you using client-side or server-side sessions?

[Deactivated User]

Where is the payload stored?

[vincent.brule]

I use server-side

[Deactivated User]

And which storage?

[Deactivated User]

The problem is that qhen you restart the server the session is lost? Or what?

[vincent.brule]

No When the user call the route logout, I call the clear method. But If I call another route with the same heder, that’s work instead of said this headers was cleared

[vincent.brule]

I don’t know if it’s clear sorry

[vincent.brule]

I’m sorry It was a called I didn’t see I will delete this post, thanks

[Deactivated User]

Okay. Np. No need to delete it

[vincent.brule]

Sorry, Already did

[vincent.brule]

And when your store the session, If the user don’t logout, The session will remain on the disk for ever ?

[Deactivated User]

Depending on the storage you use

[Deactivated User]

you can prune files on disk based on last write or last access

[Deactivated User]

you can also store the sessions in a database or redis. There is an example of this here: https://github.com/soywiz/ktor-cio-clients/blob/master/ktor-server-sessions-redis/src/io/ktor/experimental/sessions/redis/RedisSessionStorage.kt#L43

This redis version does autoprunning by using a TTL using the expire command from here: https://redis.io/commands/expire
