Hi there monks,

I've run into a strange problem: when I first login into my perl site,whos using CGI::Session to handle the sessions part, using FireFox or IE, the first login of the day returns me to the login screen again. The second time I try, I get in. Doing a little debugging on the login part I can see that the session is created on file in the directory I specified with all the right data in, the authentication part is correct but the browser doesn't see it.

Here is the code I used:

$s = new CGI::Session( "driver:file", undef, {Directory=>'/tmp/'} ) or
+ die CGI::Session->errstr;

                # the user's data
                $s->param('username',$user);
                $s->param('userid',$userid);
                $s->param('name',$name);
                $s->param('surname',$surname);
                $s->param('~logged-in',"true");
                $ipaddr = $s->param('_SESSION_REMOTE_ADDR');
                $hostname = qx#host $ipaddr |awk {'print \$5'}#;

                # verify the user's access level
                if($isadmin eq 1) {
                        $s->param('isadmin',"true");
                } else {
                        $s->param('isadmin',"false");
                        $s->param('access',"11");
                }


                # register the last login
                my $lastlogin = funcs::DB->dbgetuniq("SELECT access FR
+OM users_access WHERE userid=\"$userid\" ORDER BY access DESC","acces
+s");
                $s->param('lastlogin',"$lastlogin");
                $s->expire("~logged-in", "30m");
                $s->expire('+6h');

                # register the user access
                funcs::DB->dbdo("INSERT INTO users_access VALUES('','$
+userid','$ipaddr','$hostname',NOW())");
                print $s->header(-location=>'http://mysite/');

Any ideas?
