Session variables are not being read

I am finally making the upgrade from PHP 5.3 to PHP 7.3.  When converting over the code I noticed that session some sessions are not being processed.  My test code for this is below:

 

session_start(); 
include ("../includes/connect.inc");

echo "hiiiiiiii: ".$currentDate;
echo "Here: ".$_SESSION['user'];


if (isset($_SESSION['user']))
{
	$user = $_SESSION['user'];
	$currentDate = date("Y/m/d");

}
else
{
	echo "Session not started: ";
}

 

My include is listed below:

$link = mysqli_connect('localhost', 'root', ''); 
if (!$link) { 
    die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error("Connection error message")); 
} 
mysqli_select_db($link, 'dbname') or die (mysqli_error($link)); 



date_default_timezone_set('America/Chicago');

define ("TZ_CORRECTION", 43200);

$bkcolor = "#FFFFFF";

$currentDate = (Date("Y-m-d"));

I am not getting the message "Session not started or the current date from the include".   

If it matters I am using WAMP as my testing server

Any help is greatly appreciated.
