Sails.js uses a different connector for sessions, that is why you are having this problem. All you need to do is install and configure the connect-mongo package to use the same mongodb configured for your data:

You need to run install connect-mongo using npm:

npm install --save connect-mongo

Also, you nees to configure the session adapter in the config/session.js file. And it uses a different format:

// Note: user, pass and port are optional
url: 'mongodb://user:pass@host:port/database',
collection: 'sessions',
auto_reconnect: false,
ssl: false,
stringify: true

All this information is available on this page of the docs: Sails.js session Documentation
