session disappears after exiting the browser

[ripman]

Recently I've upgrated my PHP to 2.2.4 and now my sessions are not working corectly. Before upgrade my session was saved and after reloading the browser it was the same but after upgrade there is new session id every time I reload the browser even if there is no session_destroy() in code...

PHP configuration :

PHP Code:

session
Session Support enabled 

Directive Local Value Master Value 
session.auto_start  Off Off 
session.cache_expire  180 180 
session.cache_limiter  nocache nocache 
session.cookie_domain  no value no value 
session.cookie_lifetime  0 0 
session.cookie_path  / / 
session.cookie_secure  Off Off 
session.entropy_file  no value no value 
session.entropy_length  0 0 
session.gc_maxlifetime  1440 1440 
session.gc_probability  1 1 
session.name  PHPSESSID PHPSESSID 
session.referer_check  no value no value 
session.save_handler  files files 
session.save_path  /tmp /tmp 
session.serialize_handler  php php 
session.use_cookies  On On 
session.use_trans_sid  1 1 


Can anyone tell me what's up ?

I believe that once you close the browser the sessions are deleted it does that with my server and always has.

I remember well that after closing the browser and reopening the session id was the same :|

So - the other way to save session id is to store it in the cookie ?

[Neo]

well it so happens that i have closed a browser window and then opend it within a 30 second time and it was the same session id... but I am not to sure using a cookie would work.. there would just be another cookie and a new session.

Hmm - I'll solve this my way : I'll store session_id in the cookie (also instead of url session id)
