[Solved][Session] Not holding data

[eluser]Clooner[/eluser]
I'm trying to save some data as a session with the session class but with every page refresh the data gets lost.

Code:

$this->data['basket_key']=$this->session->userdata('basket_key');
if (!$this->data['basket_key'])
{
    $this->data['basket_key']=uniqid();
    $this->session->set_userdata('basket_key',$this->data['basket_key']);
}

And this is my config

Code:

$config['cookie_path']   = "/";
$config['cookie_domain'] = str_replace('/','',str_replace('http://',"",$config['base_url']));
$config['cookie_prefix'] = "InScortaC_";
$config['sess_cookie_name']        = 'inscorta_session';
$config['sess_expiration']        = 7200;
$config['sess_encrypt_cookie']    = TRUE;
$config['sess_use_database']    = TRUE;
$config['sess_table_name']        = 'sessions';
$config['sess_match_ip']        = TRUE;
$config['sess_match_useragent']    = TRUE;
$config['sess_time_to_update']  = 0;

I don't see a reason for the sessions getting lost. The value "basket_key" gets regenerated every page refresh but I should remember it. I have the feeling I'm using the session class in a wrong way but in any case I'm a bit lost on what is going on here.

It looks like you have some custom config settings. Have you tried it with the default settings?

Otherwise I'd suggest breaking the problem into smaller steps or a simpler test case to make sure everything's working (if you haven't already).

I tried it with several browsers but every time the same problem.

It seems that I have it working now. My cookie_domain setting was incorrect. It seems that I needed to add a .(dot) to the domain and not include the subdomains. With the basic config it also doesn't work because here the domain is not set.
