Right now when the session is destroyed, the session cookie is made empty, not removed. That's an incorrect behavior, the cookie should be deleted as well. For that, we need to set the expiration date to the past, not just an empty value.

looks like browser will delete the cookie when received empty string as a cookie value ( works with chrome and safari) |

For me it affected autotests that failed when I switched from another session module. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
we should keep other options so we will delete ${key}.sig also.
