/loggedin always 0

[kylejeske]

When using mean 0.3.3 and express 4, /loggedin will always return '0'

> db.sessions.find();
{ "_id" : "e_kCSw6NSd34TaGM8SYT8jAtuA2HhWwB", "session" : "{\"cookie\":{\"originalMaxAge\":null,\"expires\":null,\"secure\":false,\"httpOnly\":true,\"path\":\"/\"},\"passport\":{}}", "expires" : ISODate("2014-07-15T02:36:05.143Z") }

this has to do with passport being empty.

Any ideas?

If the data object in Mongo isn't a ObjectID -- it will always fail.

This was my mistake. Somehow the _id ended up as a string instead of an ObjectID()
