Depending on the version of PHP installed you may need to call your session variables differently, example:
on PHP prior to 4.x echo $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['variablename']; 4.x and later echo $_SESSION['variablename'];
Double check the path in PHP.INI then look at the permissions of that folder and make sure the IIS user can write to it, I think it is IUSER_WIN2k or something.

Further info.
If I echo the session_id() onto the page I do get an id returned. So (correct me if I'm wrong) the session has started correctly with the
session_start() at the top of the page.
It just doesn't seem to save any of the session variables I set, or if they are set, it can't retrieve them.
I get this error when trying to grab the $session['userid'] variable...
Notice: Undefined index: userid in C:\Inetpub\wwwOpSupDev\main.php on line 37

Subject: RE: [PHP] Sessions not working.
Random thought.. Did you check your PHP.INI on the 'bad' server to make sure that it's configured the same as the 'good' server?
Some things to check:
Session.use_cookies = 1 Session.auto_start = 0 // This is the first one I'd check. If you have it set to =1 on the good server and aren't doing a session_start(), that could do it I think
There are a bunch of other Session related parameters in PHP.INI.. Default timeout value.. If that's set too low, the session might vaporize before you get a chance to see the info, etc.
Good luck!

Pulling my hair out here.
I've got an IIS5 webserver running a php website just fine.
I created another web for a dev version of the first website. Installed PHP ect... When I load up the old websites files on the new site sessions won't work on the new site.
For some reason on the new site's phpinfo.php page, there is no HTTP_COOKIE variable set under the "environmental" section.
Also, under the PHP Variables section, there is no _REQUEST["PHPSESSID"] or _COOKIE["PHPSESSID"] variable.
What have I missed!???
Here is a section of the phpinfo() for both sites.
Good Site:
