Appserv session does not save

Question

I am trying to save sessions but it doesnt. After refreshing it just disappears just like a post.

This is my script

if(isset($submitlogin)){
    //Query setup
    $loginquery = "SELECT 
                    UserID, 
                    Password 
                FROM 
                    Login 
                WHERE 
                    UserID='".mssql_real_escape_string($username)."' AND 
                    Password='".$password."'";
    $loginresult = mssql_query($loginquery);
    $countrows = mssql_num_rows($loginresult);

    if($countrows == 1){
        $_SESSION['username'] = $username;
        $_SESSION['password'] = $password;

    }
    if($countrows != 1){
        $login .= "<span style='color:red'>Login Failed</span>";
    }
}

It does work on my laptop, where I do not use appserv. Does anyone know the solution?

Are you calling [`session_start()`](http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-start.php) somewhere earlier? — John C, Jul 30 '12 at 01:25
Yes I am using it in another file where I include this file I am sure its not my coding but my settings in perhaps apache — Sinan Samet, Jul 30 '12 at 02:45
Server trouble shooting is trickier - have a look at some of the answers to [this question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/155920/php-session-data-not-being-saved) to see if you have a similar problem. — John C, Jul 30 '12 at 02:57
My temp map should be writable so I dont think thats the problem but I did add my session information for if its usefull — Sinan Samet, Jul 30 '12 at 03:40
I changed the path anyway and checked the folder. It has session files in it so it should be working fine. But sessions still dont work on my server. When I refresh its just gone. Just like a POST. — Sinan Samet, Jul 30 '12 at 11:38
Did you try setting it somewhere outside of the user directory (this can be a problem http://serverfault.com/a/298849)? Also try keeping an eye on your cookies (Firebug is helpful for this) to make sure they are being set and kept correctly. — John C, Jul 31 '12 at 02:33

I believe John C got the problem.
As a complementary information, you should use else instead of "if($countrows != 1)".
