Session variables are not saved

[Cineex]

I'm setting up my new live server using suPHP mod in apache but it dosen't seam to save session variables. If i do:

session_start();
$_SESSION['foo'] = "foo";
$_SESSION['bar'] = "bar";
print_r($_SESSION);

 

it will print out the sessions as it shoud do, but if i do

session_start();
$_SESSION['foo'] = "foo";
$_SESSION['bar'] = "bar";
print_r($_SESSION);
header('Location: otherpage.php');

and then on the other page do

session_start();
print_r($_SESSION);

 

some phpinfo();

What if you don't use a header()? If you manually go to the otherpage.php?

Is the session save path writeable by the Apache user?

That worked but do you know why ?

 

Edit: nvm found it, putting:

 session_write_close(); 

just before the header and it worked, ty
