You need to show your session configuration and how you are setting up your sessions code.

I have try this app in another hosting account. its work fine. Any one can help me please. apps.hitnews.lk

It's not working because you need to set the sess_save_path

Create a folder called writable under ./applicatiion

PHP Code:

$config['sess_driver']             = 'files';
$config['sess_cookie_name']        = 'pcfx_session_';
$config['sess_expiration']         = 7200;
$config['sess_save_path']          = APPPATH.'writable';
$config['sess_match_ip']           = FALSE;
$config['sess_time_to_update']     = 300;
$config['sess_regenerate_destroy'] = FALSE;

SEE: The sess_save_path

If your using the database sessions then the database table name must match
the sess_save_path.

Also make sure that you are using the new CodeIgniter 3.1.8 session table.

Look Attached my database table screenshot. Session data was successfully stored to database. this app work fine in another hosting account. I think this issue related with my cpanel. Is there any spacial requirement to host for codeigniter?

This issue related with php version. When I use php 5.6. It.s work fine..

CodeIgniter Users Guide.
