[pmwiki-devel] cannot establish a session

[Farhad Khan]

Thanks guys! It was indeed the cookie setting in php.ini. Appreciate your
help. The cookie setting needs to be changed from the default php 5.3.3
configuration in FC 13.

I added the following in my config.php as per Petko's comments,
ini_set('session.use_cookies', 1);
ini_set('session.use_only_cookies', 1);
ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime', 1440);
