Error while retrieving session from request in middleware in async environment about django-allauth HOT 6 CLOSED

I can confirm the issue. It occurs when the session has not been loaded yet, and the middleware is the first one to trigger the actual load. Possibly related:

https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/34901

Trouble is, there is no way of triggering the load of a session asynchronously due to the ticket above, and using sync_to_async in the middleware does not sound like a plan as the middleware always kicks in, meaning all views would be hampered by this.

TBD what to do.

Here -- https://github.com/django/django/pull/17372/files -- request.session.ahas_key() is being introduced, which is what the middleware should be using. Looks like this issue is blocked on missing Django functionality.

Given that the Django pull request is using sync_to_async() under the hood as well, see #3614

Can you give this a try @jvdboog ?

I have been seeing the same error. The #3614 update fixed it. Thanks!

Merged.

@bkbirr @jvdboog I would appreciate it if you could comment over at #3546 what, according to you, is missing / needs to be done in order to improve interop with async. If all is simply working as is for you, then that is also valuable information to hear.
