I upgraded my production website(s) to the latest CVS version available as of last Friday (May 23rd).  My sites are all PHP based, running osCommerce, a popular open-source shopping cart system.  The error happened when you check your cart's contents.  Dig deeper into the code and you'll see it will not allow session to register for some reason.  The resulting bug will not allow the customer to check out because it will empty the cart.  I'm not sure if it empties the cart by registering a new session or what the case may be.  I've verified this on a clean install of osCommerce, and 2 other production websites.  I didn't have this problem with 4.3.2RC3, only when i upgraded to RC4 and CVS versions did this happen.  I reverted back to 4.3.1, since that was the only stable version I could find and the bug does not happen anymore.  There are thousands of osCommerce-based websites (and its commercial derivatives) that will probably break if the push to release 4.3.2 continues.

It's some bug in osCommerce, sessions work just fine here.

Is there a reason why it works fine in RC3 but does not in >RC4?

Uh...try search the bug database before you submit bug reports. There was a bug in RC4, but that is now fixed in CVS.
