So apparently the session had been garbage collected, and you've got the confusing error message[1]. I think the message could be improved to something that says "Invalid session …". Maybe you want to provide a pull request[2]?

Ticket #66653 is about "Incorrect CAPTCHA" errors. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2021-09-29 16:33:54] cmb@php.net This is a duplicate of bug #66653. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2021-07-25 14:06:12] chealer at gmail dot com Description: ------------ Yesterday, I wrote an issue report on bugs.php.net. Before submitting bug #81290, I went to bed so I could review the report after a break and notice errors or omissions. When I activated the "Send bug report" button today, I got the following error in a red rectangle at the top: ERROR: Please enable cookies so the Captcha system can work Obviously, cookies were enabled, so I could not do that. All I could do was to try submitting again, which worked. I filed multiple other tickets without experiencing this problem, and if you read this, that is because filing this one will not have reproduced the problem. I can only guess this error is related to the longer-than-average time I took to submit the form. By the way, "CAPTCHA" is an acronym and should be uppercase. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=81291&edit=1
