Hello,

Is it possible to share cakePHP sessions (stored in the database) across subdomains?
This thing - ini_set("session.cookie_domain", ".mydomain.com"); seems not to be working in this case.

Thanks

This single code is correct:

ini_set("session.cookie_domain", ".mydomain.com");

You need more than just that 1 line in order to have session stored in the database across subdomain.

Beside that you also need these 2 new session in cakePHP:

Plus you also need add a cookie code:

After you implement the code it should work.
