PHP session timeout

Recommended Posts

Hi Im trying to keep a session open once a user logs in for a large amount of time ( months)

 

I have set the following in a .htaccess file

 

php_value session.cookie_lifetime 99999999

php_value session.gc_maxlifetime 99999999

 

But i still lose the session and get logged out after 10 minutes or so i have created a phpinfo page and see that for these values the following is set

 

session.cookie_lifetime 99999999( local) 0 (global)

session.gc_maxlifetime 99999999 ( local) 1440 (global)

 

What is the difference between the local and global?

 

Any other ides why might session keeps timing out after 10 mins or so of inactivity?
