How to save session data in prod server? I want to save my data in a session: under drupal 8.6

I worked with "Private tempstore" it works locally but not in the server prod only if user is anonymous.

if ($this-&gt;currentUser-&gt;isAnonymous()) {
  session_start();
}


The same for the native php session.

I ask if it can be stored with php configuration or how?

thank you
Don't use procedural code. Session is now a Symfony object:

class MymoduleSessionCounter {
  function increment(Request $request) {
    $session = $request-&gt;getSession();
    $value = $session-&gt;get('mymodule_count', 0);
    $session-&gt;set('mymodule_count', $value + 1);

    return $value;
  }
}

Edit:

What you need to do for debugging depends on your dev environment. If for example you have disabled caching you are not able to debug caching issues. In this case enable caching in dev and see what happens if you add cache metadata to the returned result:

    return [
      '#markup' =&gt; $value,
      '#cache' =&gt; ['max-age' =&gt; 0],
    ];


Cache max-age = 0, because the result in this example changes on each request and is not worth caching.

When this is working the next step is to optimize production performance. Put the code in a #lazy_builder callback or in a block, which is built lazily by default. In both cases this is then auto-placeholdered for certain cache condition like cache max-age = 0, so that the rest of the page can still be cached.
