ci_sessions cookie is secure connections only? - El Forum - 07-21-2012

Hello,
I an new to CI and I trying to write a simple app that has the usual user registration ritual.
I noticed that when I turn https on, my code works fine (both resistration and login/logout process). But it fails to work with plain http.
After some search I noticed this in ci_session cookie :
Quote:Send for: Secure connections only
I don't recall setting anything explicitly to cause this behavior.
I tried to play with the config variables setting
Code:
$config['sess_encrypt_cookie']Code:
$config['sess_use_database']I also did not find anything in the documentation.
I wonder whether employing sessions in CI has to be always over https.

Ok, I figured this out: it is another config variable that is causing this behavior:
Code:
$config['cookie_secure'] = TRUE;
