Session store not set on request (even with middleware set)

[DNoel26]

Hi,

I recently upgraded from Laravel 10 to 11 and I keep running into the issue of session not being set even though it's in my middleware. I've tried every solution I could think of or find online. I've changed the app configuration (changed it back since the upgrade guide recommends not changing it), I've moved around middleware, etc. if anyone has any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated.
