Wow, that was fast ! And it explains why I didn't see anything before my initial question and discovered that when Mazi told about explaining it in the FAQ :)

Well done Shnoulle ;-)

Hi all! I am also experiencing this same problem. I am not running Suhosin. I've searched the phpinfo() output for the word, and it's not there. Are there any other known solutions for this? Any other server settings I could try? If absolutely necessary, I can post the phpinfo(), but I'd rather not as I am very wary of posting server settings to a public forum :)

As long as no one knows which server it is for, I don't see much of a problem.

Please also check the server's error log for further hints. Sometimes some settings like MAX_POST_VARS or MEMORY_LIMIT cause similar problems.

Thank you for your prompt responses, and I appologize for the delay in mine. I didn't get notified of the responses for some reason. Perhaps they got sent to junk. Anyway, I tail -f'd a couple of the server's logs while attempting to access a newly created survey, and nothing came up. Specifically the error and access logs. I'm attaching the phpinfo() saved as a .htm page. Please forgive my paranoia, as I have removed anything even resembling identifiable information. I don't think you need IP addresses or usernames to help make a diagnosis. :) I've done some digging, and I can't find the recommended MAX_POST_VARS or MEMORY_LIMIT. I don't see a MAX_POST_VARS, but I do see MAX_INPUT_VARS of 1000, and a MEMORY_LIMIT of 128MB. Obviously, I can up these as necessary. Could you post the recommended values here so I can give that a try? Would anything be showing up in the logs if either of those were the problem? Thank you SO much in advance for your help!

PLEASE NOTE: I didn't see the attached .htm file. So I'm hoping if I change the extension to .txt it will be attached. Please remove the .txt from the end to view the file.

I am beginning to get a bit desperate. This project is scheduled to go live in a couple days, and I'm still getting this Sessions has expired message for every created survey! I've checked the MAX_POST_VARS and MEMORY_LIMIT. MPV = 1000 and ML = 128M. I found in the documentation that 128M should be perfectly acceptable. I can't find anything for MPV. Please help!!
