Thanks Christoph
"Invalid session â¦" may be less bad than the current message, but I don't
think it would be correct. I suppose "Session not found" would be better.
If by "provide a pull request" you mean submit a patch, I prefer to let
maintainers decide which solution(s) they prefer. Fixing the wording is
probably a good thing, but if this happens in less than 24 hours, other
solutions should be considered (prolonging or eliminating sessions, or just
eliminating the CAPTCHA).

Ah, right, this is a different issue:

So apparently the session had been garbage collected, and you've
got the confusing error message[1]. I think the message could be
improved to something that says "Invalid session â¦". Maybe you
want to provide a pull request[2]?

Are you sure Christoph? Ticket #66653 is about "Incorrect CAPTCHA" errors.

This is a duplicate of bug #66653.

Description:
------------
Yesterday, I wrote an issue report on bugs.php.net. Before submitting bug
#81290, I went to bed so I could review the report after a break and notice
errors or omissions.
When I activated the "Send bug report" button today, I got the following error
in a red rectangle at the top:
ERROR:
Please enable cookies so the Captcha system can work
Obviously, cookies were enabled, so I could not do that. All I could do was to
try submitting again, which worked.
I filed multiple other tickets without experiencing this problem, and if you
read this, that is because filing this one will not have reproduced the
problem. I can only guess this error is related to the longer-than-average time
I took to submit the form.
By the way, "CAPTCHA" is an acronym and should be uppercase.
