Django File Based Sessions on Windows

February 16, 2010

Django's file based sessions, specified with:

SESSION_ENGINE = "django.contrib.sessions.backends.file"
SESSION_FILE_PATH = "/tmp/"

Don't work on windows, due to the bug here: http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/9084

The symptom is that the session doesn't save any values that are placed into it.
