Hello,

I am trying to port an application from Dancer1 to Dancer2, but I have not been able to make FlashMessage work. I took the code from github, from the branch topic/Dancer2 but several strange things happen when I include it.

For starters, the before_template_render hook does not appear in the debug messages that show as the app initializes (with DANCER_CORE_DEBUG set) and it is never run.

Most importantly, under some circumstances the app returns a new, fresh session loosing whatever was in the old one (which remains in disk, but the key is lost).

I put the simplest code in https://gist.github.com/4710740. Note that it must be run with the topic/Dancer2 branch of FlashMessage. Try running /logout without logging in; a second session appears.

Is this something that you can reproduce? Am I doing something wrong?

Not the least, thank you all for such hard work on Dancer and the whole ecosystem. I use FlashMessage for the other little apps I've written and it works very nice.
