Cart keeps forgetting what is in it / logging out problem

[lambro]

Help!

Problem is I "buy things" log in, sometimes it lets me go through fine, other times it logs me out, or it forgets what I just put in the basket, or it adds things from old orders, or things thta I put in but did not check out fully. I cannot work out a pattern or why it is doing it. It is on a live shop, some users report problems, others seem to come through fine, could it be proxy servers?

 

My configure.php is as follows

I have tried the sessions both empty and set to mysql, does not seem to make any difference.

 

I have turned cache on and off, no difference.

 

Sessions

 

 

Session Directory /tmp

Force Cookie Use False

Check SSL Session ID False

Check User Agent False

Check IP Address False

Prevent Spider Sessions True

Recreate Session True

 

Please help!!

Have you tried changing your Session Settings:

 

Change "Recreate Sessions" to false

 

Also, it is set up to prevent spidering, which

has nothing to do with this problem, but I

think it will hinder your efforts to show up

in the search engines.
