Hi, Is your 'other server' identical (Web Server, PHP Version, register_globals setting)?

Hello All; Please forgive me if I am repeating an often asked question, but I am having a problem with sessions. I simply cannot get them to work. The sample code I provide works on another server perfectly, this is the first page: <?PHP session_start(); session_register("name","pass"); $name = "hilde"; $pass = "mypassword"; echo "<h1>Session variables set!</h1>"; echo "<a href=\"page2.php\">go to next page</a>"; ?> When called, the following file arrives in /tmp: sess_f9c5e87b35ae66eac64a9a346321b269 name|s:5:"hilde";pass|s:10:"mypassword"; So obviously the session file is being created. However, when I go to page2.php?PHPSESSID=f9c5e87b35ae66eac64a9a346321b269 Which has this code: <?PHP session_start(); echo "<h1>The password of $name is $pass </h1>"; ?> I get "The Password of is " As a response. Both pages work perfectly on another server, so I am having trouble finding the problem, especially since the session file is actually created in /tmp My PHP.ini file is standard to a RedHat RPM install, but I will include it as an attachment.
