13020	Django session documentation is wrong	bryan	elbarto	"http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.1/topics/http/sessions/#using-sessions-out-of-views

You shouldn't pass a session_key into SessionStore, that gets generated automatically when you save() it.


{{{
>>> from django.contrib.sessions.backends.db import SessionStore
>>> s = SessionStore()
>>> s['last_login'] = datetime.datetime(2005, 8, 20, 13, 35, 10)
>>> s['last_login']
datetime.datetime(2005, 8, 20, 13, 35, 0)
>>> s.save()
>>> s.session_key
'2b1189a188b44ad18c35e113ac6ceead
}}}




{{{
>>> from django.contrib.sessions.models import Session
>>> s = Session.objects.get(pk='2b1189a188b44ad18c35e113ac6ceead')
>>> s.expire_date
datetime.datetime(2005, 8, 20, 13, 35, 12)
}}}
