I have been reading around google and the mailing lists all day and to no avail. I have even read entries from people with exactly the same problem as myself, but still can't find the answer.

I have set up A:A:P:Session exactly as the Wiki describes and it desn't work. When I say it doesn't work I mean that it does not send out a cookie to the browser and therefore no state is being maintained and I get issued a new session Id for every page request.

I am using:
Apache-AxKit-Plugin-Session-0.99
Apache-Session-1.6
libapreq-1.33
Apache/1.3.33 (Darwin)
AxKit 1.62
mod_perl 1.29

xsltproc -V
Using libxml 20617, libxslt 10111 and libexslt 809
xsltproc was compiled against libxml 20617, libxslt 10111 and libexslt 809
libxslt 10111 was compiled against libxml 20617
libexslt 809 was compiled against libxml 20617

This is what httpd.conf currently looks like:

######

<FilesMatch \.(xml|xsp|rdf)>
  # All the standard Axkit bits here

  PerlInitHandler Apache::RequestNotes
  PerlModule Apache::AxKit::Plugin::Session
  PerlSetVar AxKitSessionDir /tmp/sessions
  ErrorDocument 403 /redirect?url=/login.xml

  AxAddXSPTaglib AxKit::XSP::Session
  AxAddXSPTaglib AxKit::XSP::Auth
  AxAddXSPTaglib AxKit::XSP::Global

</FilesMatch>

<Location />
 AuthType Apache::AxKit::Plugin::Session
 AuthName AxKitSession
 PerlAuthenHandler Apache::AxKit::Plugin::Session->authenticate
 PerlAuthzHandler Apache::AxKit::Plugin::Session->authorize
 require valid-user
</Location>

<Location /protected>
 require group users
</Location>

I tried specifically setting 'PerlSetVar AxKitSessionManager Apache::Session::File' I also tried it like 'PerlSetVar AxKitSessionManager Apache::Session::DB_File'
neither made any difference.

An other problem I had was getting the redirect to work (not that it will be of any use until the plugin sends cookies). I read that I should add a section like:

<Location /redirect>
   PerlInitHandler Apache::RequestNotes
</Location>

But this did nothing.

I got the BasicSession module working fine. It sends cookies and maintains state no problems.

Could someone perhaps show me their config from a working installation so I compare?

Help much appriciated.
Tom
