I'm also having issues that sessions does not timeout even after idle timeout or hard timeout has been met.
but forcing session to terminate

what should be higher DHCP lease time timedout or captive portal?

current setting
captive portal idle timeout 60minutes
captive portal hard timeout 240minutes

dhcp leased timedout 300minutes

for corrupt captiveportal database do the below.
db can be read by portal but changes cant. hence what ever is in the db is accepted and has already
loggedin alot of users and that dont logout even with hard limit. apparently it was due to a currupt db. changes throws an error.

database_filename = '/var/captiveportal/captiveportal.sqlite'

STOP captive portal service

* goto shell (press *

cd /
cd var
cd captiveportal
rm captiveportal.sqlite
exit

START captive portal service

hope in the future captive portal and redis will have a database "refresh" button in the UI
