Laravel 5.2 - Sessions not saving
<p>I'm using Laravel 5.2 and sessions don't seem to be saving.</p>

<p>I've tried both file and database (after creating the sessions table) and neither seem to work.</p>

<p>I've set the file permissions to 777 on storage/framework/sessions and no sessions file is created.</p>

<p>To save a session I'm using:</p>

<pre><code>session(['key' =&gt; 'value']);
</code></pre>

<p>and to retrieve the session I'm using:</p>

<pre><code>$value = session('key');
</code></pre>

<p>But I can't get it to save</p>
