(I start the session and then I wait more than 60 sec > before I will call other script) this is probably a misunderstanding. after session.gc_maxliftime the session data is seen as garbage and with the session.gc_probability at each startup the data will be deleted. so if you set maxlifetime to 60, and gc_probability to 1, the session data after 60 seconds is seen as garbage and with the chance of 1% it's deleted by the actual request. sounds not like a bug to me, anyone? > 2) When I set "session.gc_probability = 100" in PHP.INI, ALL other session files are deleted > (only one session can be used at the time - if are connected 2 clients to server, the second client > owerwrites or deletes session of the first client, etc.). > This bug is maybe related to "session.gc_maxlifetime" bug. seems like you're having the maxlifetime alot to low, set it to 600 (for ten minutes, should be valuable) thus it's seen as garbage, because you set the probability to 100% the cleanup of garbage is performed at each startup. sounds not like a bug to me too. greetings daniel /*-- daniel beulshausen - daniel@php4win.de using php on windows? http://www.php4win.de
