Phalcon csrf fail on server

I am using phalcon 2.0.9.

I have a login form, with csrf protection.

This is the code in the form:

<input type='hidden' id='token' name='{{ security.getTokenKey() }}' value='{{ security.getToken() }}' />

And this is the validation in the controller:

if(!$this->security->checkToken()) {
    // error code here
}

It works perfectly on localhost, butn when I upload it to the server, it always fails. I use ajax in login. After the post request, the csrf token in session is different than the token in the post.

What could cause this?

Make sure you're using the latest Phalcon version on your server as well
And either use the server configurations given by the users on the forum or move your notfound(404) action to a controller that doesn't include CSRF TokenKey & Key generation on it's view.

When there's a item favion/robot.txt/img etc that is not found on the server this hits the 404 action and you end up have the CSRF tokens regenerated.

Hope that would help.
