Laravel session not working between views

Question

Its a laravel 5.2 app. I have these 2 functions:

public function page1()
{
        Session::put('test', '1');
        $value = Session::get('test');
        echo 'test: '.$value;
}

public function page2()
{
    $value = Session::get('test');
    echo 'test: '.$value;
}

I first go to localhost/page1. And I can see that the page prints:

test: 1

I then go to localhost/page2

But the page prints:

test:

So it seems like the sessions are not shared among views. Why? Is this some config issue?

This is route.php:

Route::group(['prefix' => 'pages'], function()
{
    Route::get('page1', 'AdminController@page1');
    Route::get('page2', 'AdminController@page2');
});

I using filesystem. I can see that the session files are saved under storage/frameworks/session — oderfla

How are you getting test: test in first route? You should get test: 1 — Abhishek

i write same code as you in controller as below :

public function page1()
{
      Session::put('test', '1 ');
      $value = Session::get('test');
      echo 'test: '.$value;
}

public function page2()
{
  $value = Session::get('test');
  echo 'test: '.$value;
}

and route file is also same :

Route::group(['prefix' => 'pages'], function()
{
    Route::get('page1', 'AdminController@page1');
    Route::get('page2', 'AdminController@page2');
});

and it is working properly-> Output: http://localhost/laravel-5.2/public/pages/page1

test: 1

http://localhost/laravel-5.2/public/pages/page2

test: 1

There is an issue about session persistence in laravel https://github.com/laravel/framework/issues/8172

If you use Session::save() every time when after update session,may be your problem will solved.So your page1 method will be

public function page1()
{
    Session::put('test', '1');
    Session::save()
    $value = Session::get('test');
    echo 'test: '.$value;
}
