Well, after a ton of testing, it turns out that the problem actually
centers around $APACHEHOME/bin/rotatelogs. For some $@$#@$#$ reason, if you
start apache with SSL enabled and you use rotatelogs to have Apache
automatically rotate your logs, you get zero length php session files in
/tmp. Things run fine if you start Apache in non-ssl mode. Of course, the
reason my first server worked fine was because it is our developement
server and those guys don't want their logs rotated -- they do it
themselves.
So, I'm not sure why Apache logs affect PHP session file length when Apache
is running with SSL enabled, but it did. Also, I'm not convinced this is
the only way to fix the problem, but this way definately works.
So, I'll probably just end up writing some cron job to rotate the logs for
me.
