PHP , or cookie related thing, does anyone think it may help to
upgrade from 1.4.9 to 1.4.12 , and see if re-running the installer
will recognize the changed underlying settings ?
Given that the hosting co. won't talk directly to me, and I only have
limted , non-root rights via SSH, limiting my ability to poke around,
is an upgrade a usefull option ?
If your hosting company won't talk to you, you need to find a hosting
company that's responsive to their customers' needs.
More generally, you should have at this point already checked the
session configuration and whether you need to for instance use a
configuration such as that recommended for

If this is a public-facing wiki, you should upgrade to 1.4.12 regardless
of whether it has anything to do with this problem, as there are
security and data corruption issues resolved by newer releases.
