You have set gc_maxlifetime to 3600 seconds. How much expire time have
you set?
Because, every 3600 seconds, session data stored is considered as
garbage and php clears them out itself.

If your expiration time is more than 3600 seconds, then this will not
work. You need to increase gc_maxlifetime.

For the other case, I'm clueless.
