Check if there are any references to register_shutdown_function, and replace them with session_register_shutdown. Second, check the return value of session_set_save_handler, it is a bad habit not checking return value of a function, just because it works. If that doesn't help, take the session piece out of the big framework, and test it in a separate file. If that also fails, you've got a small piece of code you can post here which will encourage others to have a look at it at their box. - Matijn
