Hope this isn't too much of a 'me too!'.
I have the same problem on W2K/IIS5 running PHP 4.1.2 as an ISAPI
module.
I have looked at the session files in the temp directory and they seem
to be created and populated with variables without any trouble. The
problem is that any page referencing them returns an 'index not valid'
error.
I too am using $_SESSION.
The only way I can get it to work is if I do sessions the
"old-fashioned" way, ie:
$foo = 'bar';
session_register( $foo );
If I go back to 4.1.1 everything works fine (using $_SESSION).
Peter.

I recently upgraded to 4.12 running W98: Apache 1.3.19, Win32
PHP/4.1.3-dev running; reg_globals OFF; trying to work my way through
sessions. Yikes!! It is hard to figure how it works or when to use
$_SESSION or HTTP_SESSION_VARS, w/ or without session_register().
/* this seems to ~work sort of, maybe...
$ship_type = $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['ship_type']; //or with $_SESSION..
which seems to be erratic
session_unregister("ship_type");
$ship_type= 'trs'; //$ship_type + 1;
session_register("ship_type");
flush();
// This allows other pages to show the revised value via
$_SESSION["ship_type"]
Now if I could just erase a pair in an array with unset...
Keep up the goodwork!

This comment is just to say that I am experiencing the same problem
with PHP 4.1.2 as CGI, Windows 98 SE German, Apache 1.3.20, using
php.ini with register_globals turned OFF and neither $_SESSION nor
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS is working. A session file is created in the
sessions directory but no variables are stored within it. A typical
error I get when trying to use a variable previously stored in
$_SESSION is:
Warning: Undefined index: text in session_2.php on line 3. I mistakenly
reported this as a new bug to
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=16273&edit=2 but I set that to
"Duplicate" now, so I hope it will be ok. Sorry. Robert

Using the $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["foo"] = "bar" is all well and good, but
one of the major points about 4.1.x was the new $_SESSION array and its
global scope. Infact it got a big mention on the download page. Its
only fair to put a big mention that its broke in 4.1.2 as I'm sure that
a few devs (myself included) now have broken code using
$_SESSION["foo"] = "bar" which is silly to take back to the old way of
doing it.
Either make a note or release a patch!
FWIW, this happens on Apache 1.2.23 in SAPI mode and Apache 2.0.32 beta
in CGI mode

Using session_start() and setting $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['my_Var'] to any
value mays help.
Here is my code to use the $_SESSION array :
//~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
session_start();
if (!isset($_SESSION["count"])) {
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS["count"] = 0;
}
$_SESSION["count"]++;
echo $_SESSION["count"];
//~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fix it and release a new version or at least make a note on the
downloadpage.
