title: Laravel Auth error with session
body: <p>I'm working on an old database which I can not modify.</p>
  <p>What I'm trying to do is a Login for users for that database, the <strong>username</strong> and <strong>password</strong> fields are with another name so I had to change some variables in Laravel and it is working, it redirects me to <strong>/home</strong> if the authentication is valid.</p>
  <p>The problem is that when the redirection is done, the session files are created but the session is <strong>NULL</strong> so the user is redirected to <strong>login</strong> page again.</p>
  <p>I have seen a lot of threads with this similar issue, but no answer has worked for me.</p>
