You were right! That was exactly the problem
after reading your message, I 've verified the value for gc_maxlifetime
and found that it was set to 1440 secs in other words 24 minutes.
Thank you for that.
But, now I need to come up with something to avoid this behaviour.
The problem is that there's a second php application ruuning on the same
server and I don't want to change the default for gc_maxlilfetime,
Why not just change it on your pages? The manual says it can get changed
anywhere... so just make a call to ini_set() on your pages and other
scripts will remain unaffected.
?
So I was thinking on implementing some sort of automatic session refresh
after a short period, let's say every 20 minutes of inactivity.
And of course I should provide the users with a manual way to make
session end, sort of a logout from the application.( no problem with
that)
My question is:
Is there a way to set sort of a timer as to invoke an hipothetical
"refresh_session.php" without reloading the current page on the client?
Thanks
Mauricio.

Hi, I have this problem , When I start a Session everything seems to
be
ok but sometimes with no reason the session vanishes.
All settings are default , I mean session_cache_expire is 180 min.
I understand that this setting should make sessions last for at least
3
hours but in my case it seems not to be true since the real duration
varies from 20 minutes to an hour
I think the parameter you need to look at in php.ini is
session.gc_maxlifetime. It sets the session lifetime, not
session_cache_expire. The default lifetime is probably 1440 seconds,
roughly 20 minutes, so the behavior you are seeing is completely normal -
it's all working as it should.
