I am losing customer ID whenever I change pages

[Forty-two_?]

I am using easyPHP and running on a PC. I can login and it recognises me but as soon as I change page I lose my identity (the logout button disappears).

 

Also when trying to create a new user I get an error message about duplicate headers...

 

Where should I start looking the problem.

Your problem seems session related.

Whenever you hover over a link does it show the session_id (big strange alphanumeric string at the end) in your browsers status bar?

 

Have you tried to remove all cookies from your browser?

Is there a c:tmp directory on your system?

The session id is displayed when I hover over a button. (but is alot shorter when I am logged in ?)

 

The c:temp file has gone, with no effect.

 

I do not get this problem when logged into someone else's live site on the web.

not c:temp but c:tmp as that is where the sessions are stored by default. (settings are in configure.php) You can try setting them to 'mysql' and see if that makes a difference.

Thanks

 

I changed the STORE_SESSIONS in configure.php to point to my database (mysql_catalog) and it all seems to work.
