Even changing my call to my ->log() method into a `or die` is not giving me anything illuminating from $!. These tests are being run through the browser. Why, pray tell, is my application unable to update its session with this new data? Would the fact that it is attempting to overwrite data for existing parameters have anything to do with that?

$self->{'s'} isa CGI::Session object.

if(defined($self->{'s'})){
  $self->{'s'}->flush() or $self->log(
    'WARNING',
    'Failed attempt to flush session parameters for   
    _cgisess_' . $self->{'s'}->id()  . 
    ' to the file store: ' . $!);
}

The session is owned and writable by apache, which created it.

hesco@localhost:~/$ ls -l /tmp/sessions/ 
   .   .   .   
-rw-r----- 1 www-data www-data 333 2009-06-30 22:57 /tmp/sessions/cgis
