express-session creates new session over https

I am using express-session with redis and as soon as I deploy the code to elastic beanstalk and use https, new session is created upon every request. If I use http then it works as expected. The problem is not with redis as I had the same issue before when I was using the memory to store the session

const app = express();
app.set('trust proxy', 1)

app.use(session({
  secret: uuidv4(),
  name: 'name_',
  resave: false,
  saveUninitialized: true,
  store: new redisStore({ client: redisClient, ttl: 86400 }),
  cookie: { secure: true }
}))

I finally found out what was the problem 🎉 Cloudfront was not sending any cookies to my server. Such a silly mistake

Thank you for your message, the uuid is called once so I dont think that is the problem and I think If that was the issue, http would also be broken. I did some more digging and it seems like I have the exact same problem as renehauck (https://github.com/expressjs/session/issues/652). However, in my case I do receive “x-forwarded-proto”: “https”
