Description:
------------
Whenever I change variables_order value in a <Directory> or <VirtualHost> directive, sessions get broken. Each time a session_start() runs, it creates a new session file instead of using the existing one. I'm using Apache 2.0.47. Snipset of httpd.conf appears below:

<Directory "/var/www.html/wfm/">
    php_value variables_order "ES"
    php_flag display_errors  Off
    php_flag log_errors      On
    php_value error_log      /var/www/log/wfm.log
</Directory>

Rather interesting:
you're trying to use session, but make PHP totally ignore GET & COOKIE variables.
PHP knows nothing about session ID and creates new session every time.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

Since GET & COOKIE are not registered how do you expect session to be created, which is generated based on GET or COOKIE?
