Admin losing session on form submit, returning to login

[batyushki]

I just moved over from a Unix server to a Windows server. Everything works beautifully! However, I am losing my session ID when I submit a form in the Admin side (e.g. on the customers page, search form or drop-down navigation box). This kicks me out of the page and I go back to the login with a new session in the URL. Any ideas? Configure settings are identical except for the file path on the server, which I believe is correct. I am storing sessions in mysql.

I've attached a comparison of server settings that are different from my old setup. Anyone with some session/php.ini experience that can point me in the direction would be great! Then I can isolate the problem and contact my hosting provider.

Thanks for developing MS2-MAX! It's great!

I'm having this problem too. Did you find a solution? When I do a search, I am directed to login. If I am logged in, it logs me off.

I was just wondering if anyone had solved this problem, as I am having the problem as well. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Theis is a known problem with IIS . I am having the problem also on another loaded os product aparrently no one know how to fix this. you will get everyone telling you to change your session settings. The session settings are not the problem. Its IIS 5.0 (windows server).

Very well documented. If you go to the php site and serch the docs for sessioin_start() function. There are fixes I just don't know how to patch up the sessions.php code to do this.
Meantime I'm doing most of that type of admin through access.
