No Session Message on Frontend?

Question

I have a very strange issue that looks related to session.

There are a couple of things not working:

• If I add a product to the cart, I'm redirect to the cart page but no items
• If I try to create a new user, I'm redirect back with no message.

I have tried the following code and I expect a message in the frontend but nothing:

public function anyAction()
    {
        $session = $this->_getSession();
        $session->addError($this->__('BLABLABLA'));
        $this->_redirectError(Mage::getUrl('*/*/create', array('_secure' => true)));
    }

That is why I suspect that the problem is related to session.

Any idea ?
