node.js - Node + Redis not quite working -

node.js - Node + Redis not quite working -

i have initialisation code;

app.use(cookieparser); var redis = require('redis'); var redisoptions = {} redisoptions.client = redis.createclient(<removed>, 'pub-redis-12124.us-east-1-2.3.ec2.garantiadata.com'); app.use(session({ store: new redisstore(redisoptions), secret: 'keyboard cat', resave: true, saveuninitialized: true }));

in routing, have this;

router.post('/login', function (req, res) { var users = req.db.get('users'); users.findone({email: req.body.email}, function (err, user) { console.log(user); if (req.body.password == user.password) { req.session.id = user._id; console.log("id:" ); res.send('successful login' + req.session.id); } else { // create sure log failed auth requests var log = req.db.get('failed_auth'); var fail_info = {}; fail_info.email = req.body.email; fail_info.ip = req.headers['x-forwarded-for'] || req.connection.remoteaddress; fail_info.timestamp = date.now(); log.insert(fail_info, function(doc) { res.send('bad creds'); }); } }); });

however when seek go through code, error;

typeerror: cannot set property 'id' of undefined
