PHP sets a cookie with the name ASP.NET_SessionID but seems not to read it at the next page request. Reproduce code: --------------- I tried this with the session_name("ASP.NET_SessionID"); function and with setting it thru php.ini session.name = MYSITE.NET_SessionID i even tried to surround the text with quotes in php.ini like session.name = "MYSITE.NET_SessionID" or session.name = 'MYSITE.NET_SessionID" Expected result: ---------------- php reads the session id from the cookie names "MYSITE.NET_SessionID' and then reads the sessiondata with the specified sessionhash ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42750&edit=1
