Cookie not being set - El Forum - 05-15-2008
[eluser]europe72[/eluser]
I am in the process of moving a site from a development environment to a production environment. On the production environment, when I start a session, no cookie is set and I can't seem to figure out why.
--> I am using the standard CI session handling.
Dev works, production does not. Session info is being written to the DB, just no cookie. Any ideas?
I did check phpinfo on the prod. box and sessions are enabled with the usual settings.
From config...
$config['sess_cookie_name'] = 'ci_session';
$config['sess_expiration'] = 1800; // :30
$config['sess_encrypt_cookie'] = TRUE;
$config['sess_use_database'] = TRUE;
$config['sess_table_name'] = 'ci_sessions';
$config['sess_match_ip'] = TRUE;
$config['sess_match_useragent'] = TRUE;
From phpinfo...

Maybe I should rephrase this...what in CI could stop a cookie from being written? Thanks.

I actually figured this one out myself. The issue in this case, for me was that the server time was behind my client time by enough seconds to cause the browser to reject/delete my cookie at the time it was set.
