manish2535 Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Hi guys. I was wondering if you guys will have some time to tell me the bad or good side of the settings I have inplace for my site - Session Directory /tmp Force Cookie Use True Check SSL Session ID True Check User Agent True Check IP Address False Prevent Spider Sessions True Recreate Session True My site has full SSL. I am asking because recently I have been having people saying they keep getting sent to the login screen. I am pretty sure its got something to do with the session IDs not being created properly but I am not an expert so may be you guys can shed some light on this. Thanks in advance. Appreciated.

Jack_mcs Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 The force cookie option shouldn't be on but that, or any of the other options, wouldn't cause your problem. It is most likely the configure file is not setup correctly.

manish2535 Posted September 14, 2012 Author Share Posted September 14, 2012 Is there any harm with Force Cookie being ON apart from the fact that Visitors will need to have their cookies enabled in order to shop in my site? I looked into my configure file, everything looks alright but I want to make sure that these settings were setup correctly - define('ENABLE_SSL', true); define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'www.site.com'); define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'www.site.com'); define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/'); define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/'); Thanks again for your time.

Jack_mcs Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 No, there's no other harm. There are other parts of the confiugre file that can cause the problem, thus the link to the support thread for it.

♥FWR Media Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 The force cookie option shouldn't be on but that, or any of the other options, wouldn't cause your problem. It is most likely the configure file is not setup correctly. With a full SSL certificate the force cookies option should definately be on! You can't shop anywhere decent with cookies set to off .. e.g Amazon etc. It is insecure to have querystring based sessions.
