Session variables lost between pages

[joshmaker]

I'm moving a website to a Windows 2003 Server, onto which I have installed PHP. I can create session variables, however, they are not being saved from one page to another. Is there a setting I have to turn on to get IIS to use session variables?

NOT an IIS issue but a PHP one ( forum434 )

I've never had an issue using sessions with PHP before, and code that worked on my old server no longer works on my current one. The code I'm testing right now is extremely simple, and yet it still doesn't work:

page 1:
<?php
session_start();

$_SESSION["level"] = 42;
print 'Session: '.$_SESSION["level"];
?>

page 2:
<?php
session_start();

print 'Session: '.$_SESSION["level"];
?>

The first page prints out "Session: 42", the second one just prints "Session

OK, I think the problem is fixed. I created a new "sessions" folder, and then fiddled with the folder permissions until it worked.
