Here are some quick tips that may help:

* In awake() I use the following guard so that I don't create a session if=
 one is not needed:

if trans.hasSession() ...


* In using sessions, I often provide a default value:

userId =3D self.session().value('userId', None)


* I see in my code I actually combine the two:

=09=09=09userId =3D self.transaction().hasSession() and=
 self.session().value('userId', None) or None

I don't see anything in my apps asking about the session being expired...
