Hi guys,
Having a bit of trouble with a wiki at the moment, wondered if any of you have any ideas what might be causing my problems.
Running on Windows 2003 Server SP-1, PHP 5.1.1, MySQL 5.0.18, IIS 6.
The install went fine, but I'm having some strange problems since then. If I login, it confirms that I've logged in, then reverts to using my IP address as though the session data has been lost. The cookies are being set properly, as I've checked them in FireFox. Are there any PHP settings I may have missed? I've tried clearing all the cookies, but this hasn't helped.
My other issue is that if I try and access any page in the wiki with IE, it will take about 5 minutes to load, and all the images won't appear. I've tried wiping my cache and cookies, but to no avail.
Any ideas would be appreciated; the site is currently password protected, but if one of you would like to look I can grant you temporary access. Nothing's been added yet, so there's nothing for me to lose!
Regards,
Graham Wager

Check the session.save_path in php.ini; this is bogus in the default installation of PHP on Windows.

I set mine to the following:
session.save_path= C:\PHP\sessiondata
and gave this directory modify permission for the internet guest account.
works fine....same config..win2k3/iis6
