resolved it.

found this ticket:
https://github.com/auth0/passport-auth0/issues/70
and a question on stackoverflow:

which explain some things about state values, heroku and SSL ans well as how to resolve the problem

specifically i changed:
if (app.get(‘env’) === ‘production’) {
sess.cookie.secure = true; // serve secure cookies, requires https
}

to

if (app.get('env') === 'production') {
      app.set('trust proxy', 1); // trust first proxy
      sess.cookie.secure = true; // serve secure cookies, requires https
    }

you could also leave all of the above out if you don’t want to use secure cookies.

hope this helps other :slight_smile:
