Description:
------------
This link in php.ini is dead:

> ; Set session ID character length. This value could be between 22 to 256.
> ; Shorter length than default is supported only for compatibility reason.
> ; Users should use 32 or more chars.
> ; http://php.net/session.sid-length
> ; Default Value: 32
> ; Development Value: 26
> ; Production Value: 26
> session.sid_length = 26

When using the link from the previous directive (http://php.net/session.use-trans-sid), I'm getting forwarded to https://www.php.net/manual/de/session.configuration.php#ini.session.use-trans-sid
So it looks like this forwarding mechanism is not set up for session.sid-length
