Hello everybody

I had posted a question about problems I had with setting session variables and received some answers which although did not solve the problem they were educational and useful.  Session variables worked sometimes and did not work some other times without any changes to the code.

Two days ago I changed the hosting company and moved all my files without any changes from the old host to the new one (IONIS).  Now no session work at all!  No log in, no shopping cart, no counter, nothing!  The code is exactly as what it was before.  So it must be the server.  I am sure their tech support is going to know about PHP problem so I am asking here.  What could be different from this server to the old one that stops all sessions and session variables?

Thanks in advance

Their tech support is exactly the place to ask. Because this is going to be an issue related to server configuration, which we can't see - but they can.

A new host will have two major differences: different file paths (potentially) and different PHP settings. One of those is almost guaranteed to be the explanation.

Getting to the support people seem to be the bigger problem.  I finally solved the problem with a lot of trial and errors. 

If contacting support or getting support from a hosting company appears to be an issue, I would definitely be looking elsewhere. If you are paying for hosting, I would be expecting 24 hour tech support to be included.
