@systems-diplomatic, wat was the root cause and how did you solve this? I'm facing the same issue

[systems-diplomatic]

@Jilco, we installed redis to handle the sessions and finally the problem went away, however we never really found the root cause.

I think i found it, it is in engintron NGINX. The micro cache is the problem
