That is odd, as it usually works out of the box without requiring any
configuration.

Actually, you don't have to do that with CGI::Session, you can just
give it a CGI.pm object and it will figure out the session_id from
that. That is the technique that CAP::Session uses.

What you are doing here is telling CAP::Session to use a different
name for the cookie. The docs for CAP::Session warn you about doing
that. My recommendation would be to comment out your entire
'session_config' line and let CAP::Session use its defaults. That
should work for everyone. Then you can start adding customizations in
and test as you make changes. That way you will figure out where
things are going wrong.
