session drops from domain to subdomains

[fahad direct]

if a client logs in from my domain.com session works well there but as far as he redirects from domain to subdomains session drops its values. Is there any of its solution to try with?

have you tried with cookies?

[fahad direct]

No as cookies are created on client side and what if he has disabled?

What is the value of your session.cookie_domain directive?

[fahad direct]

I am simply creating session on main domain and then using session_start(); function in subdomains pages. Could you please assist me if I am doing wrong?

[eelixduppy]

If you change the session.cookie_domain to be less specific to a particular subdomain it should work. Just remove the subdomain on that value in your config file and see if that works (after restarting the server).

Thanks for your help.

I have checked php ini file, in both local and master value it is showing as "No Value" how could i reset this value to my subdomain?

I did some research on it and tried it to set it from within my code before i create session like:

ini_set("session.cookie_domain", ".mydomain_name.com");
session_start();
$_SESSION['client']="My session value";

This is the code i have put on mydomain_name but when i try to access it in subdomain as subdomain.mydomain_name.com it doesn't work.
