I now have the following settings:
session_name('myapp');
$mytimeout = 180 * 60; // minutes * 60
session_set_cookie_params($mytimeout);
$sessdir = ini_get('session.save_path')."/myapp";
if (!is_dir($sessdir)) { mkdir($sessdir, 0777); }
ini_set('session.save_path', $sessdir);
// New Attempt
session_cache_limiter();
session_cache_expire($mytimeout / 60);
ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime', $mytimeout / 60);
#ini_set('session.gc_probability',1);
#ini_set('session.gc_divisor',1);
session_start();
I logged in and then left the computer untouched for an hour. When I
came back the session was timed out, and I was required to login.
Something still isn't working right. Any ideas? I have checked the
settings using phpinfo() and confirmed that the values are in fact being
set by the above commands.
