Session not working

Hello everyone, I recently installed Apache 1.3.9 server and php 4.3.4(from win32 zip package) on my system with Windows98SE as o/s. I configured the httpd.conf and php.ini as per the instructions on the install.txt file of php. First i got an error with regard to the path of session.save_path. I changed /tmp to c:/program files/Apache group/Apache/tmp and the error was gone and it worked perfectly. But when i use a script like this:- test1.php <?php session_start(); $_session["value"]="Good Morning"; header('location: http://localhost/test2.php'); ?> test2.php <?php session_start(); $check=$_session["value"]; echo $check; ?> Insted of getting "Good Morning" displayed on the test2.php page, i get a blank page. But i see that a file is being created with a lengthy name in the session.save_path directory with 0 byte size. I must also add here that session_register is working fine. But what is happening with $_session when i use header-location- i don't know. Please anyone help. I am trying to fix this for the last 5 days. I am also getting a warning from the apache console window that "warn[2] No such file or directory exists, exec() may not be safe. apache on win32 is running.......". But apache is working fine in http://localhost. ......SuDeEp...... Yahoo! India Insurance Special: Be informed on the best policies, services, tools and more.
