[Zoo-discuss] Unable to read your session file

Hi Milan,
for storing session files on server side, you should add a sessPath variable pointing to an existing and writable (by apache user) directory  in the main section of your main.cfg file.

Once you authenticate your user from a service, your client will receive a Cookie and will send it to each future request to ZOO-Kernel. So until the cookie are removed (should happen when restarting the browser) you cannot access the ZOO-Kernel anymore, except if you manually create a session file. 

I guess that the only issue in your case is that the sessPath is not provided or not writable by apache user.

Waiting for your feedbacks.

Hope this helps,
Best regards,

Gérald Fenoy
