L4 -session seem to restart their lifefepan after refresh

Hi,

In my sessions.php I have the following code.

'lifetime' => 1,

However it seems I can make this last forever by hitting refresh before the minute is up.

Is this a bug or is there a way to override this?

Level 56

The session lifetime is 1 min so yes if you refresh the page before 1 min it keeps going.

What do you want to achieve here ?

Level 9

Ideally if someone leave a certain page their session is destroyed.

Level 56

isn't it the purpose of the expire_on_close config param ?

Level 9

doesn't seem to work - only tried on Chrome.
