Ok I think I understand where you are going with this. You will likely have a few areas that you need to check into here: 1. session.gc_maxlifetime - the default which is common in PHP is 1440 seconds. You may also want to set this to the remember me seconds.
When you use long-running sessions; it is expected behavior for the session id to be regenerated. But this is just an id and we are not clearing out the session entirely. Are you calling destory() on the session manager anywhere? This would also cause for the removal of the session cookie. The first thing to look at is introspect the cookie after you have gone to the page; this will allow you to start to see where things are going wrong. There may be that you are missing a configuration value or had mis-typed the value.
