Thanks Rasmus and John,
The sessions are being set in the browser but when checking for them on
each page I am sent to the error page. I notice that when I upgraded to
4.2.3 the sessions are no longer stored in the tmp folder. I check the
ini and the folder and path are there. Anything I am missing?
Checking code
session_start();
if (!isset($_SESSION['SESSION_UNAME'])){
header("Location: error.php?e=2");
exit();
}
