ok the problem is now solved, thank you for pointing in the right direction with these php.ini settings, but still it would be nice to have these checked in test.php from horde

ok i think i found the solution, will now test it. on debian the setting for "session.gc_probability = 0", can there be some sort of check in the test.php, that looks for that configuration values?

If garbage collection is not being called, it is an issue with PHP. See: http://www.php.net/manual/en/session.configuration.php#ini.session.gc-divisor http://www.php.net/manual/en/session.configuration.php#ini.session.gc-maxlifetime http://www.php.net/manual/en/session.configuration.php#ini.session.gc-probability

my horde_sessionhandler table gets bigger and bigger (driver: mysql based sessions). i think there should be some sort of garbage collector running on the table. the code in mysql.php has a gc function but i can't find a call to this function in the entire code. my horde_sessionhandler table has now 10267 entries. and when running the sql 'select * from horde_sessionhandler where `session_lastmodified` < 1261306002' with 1261306002 is time() - 300 i got 10265 entries listed with the oldest timestamp is 1257691733. and this is really old.
