I have a user session which only works on the localhost. The session
value gets 
disappeared when i access over the network. I am doubting whether it is
a server 
configuration problem.

Did any one face such a problem? If you have a solution I am very much
in need.

This issue, as originally reported, was due to an IIS CGI bug described
here:

I have exactly the same issue but not in all the browsers. Only Safari
and Internet Explorer causes the sessions to disappear. All the other
browsers works seamlessly.

I have tried everything mentioned in this thread to try and solve my
redirect and AWOL sessions issue but without any luck.

Running a Centos server with latest php and apache installed. I'm
thinking of just scraping the sessions idea and do a entry in a tmp
table in my db.

Hi,

As i said earlier i have login page which registers session variables
and go to the login area where check.php will check for the session
variables. Here i compare old session id stored in session variable with
session_id(). but here initially stored sessionid and session_id() were
not equal. It means browser is generating new id after redirected. Could
anyone help me in work around for this.

I am desperately waiting for help over this.

I faced exactly the same problem : (USING W2K-IIS5/PHP4.3.7)

I take the login username and password and store it in the session and
then redirect to another page .. The first time I reach there the
session is not set. I hit browser back and re enter the login
information it works fine

The first login page contains html only - no php
I start the session in the second page that checks the login and
redirect to the third page

MY SOLUTION - it worked for me in this way! :
I added the following to the first (html-only) page :

<?php 
session_start();
?>

Isn't it strange ?!?
