[PHP] After upgrading PHP, Session Values not stored properly

[Sheni R. Meledath]

Hi,
We recently upgraded PHP on our web server to version 4.3.8. After 
upgrading sessions are not working properly. Please help to configure the 
latest version.

There is a log-in module on our web site. After successfully entering the 
log-in information, a session variable is created to track the user. But 
this value is not carried while loading other pages. So it returns to 
log-in module again. On the server , the session file is created (/tmp - 
path for session files) and the values are also saved in the file. The 
values are not retrieved properly by the following pages after log-in.

The same log-in module was working perfectly with the older version 4.3.2.
This is the LoadModule entry in the httpd.conf file for Apache.
        LoadModule php4_module modules/mod_php4-4.3.8.so
