Mark,
Yes it was working before the UNIX server was rebuilt.
The files were written to the dir specified.
I don't know when, during or after, it doesn't matter to the script.
The files need to be there for the next call to the CGI.

KG,
I'm sorry we broke NASA.
I think I understand the issue, but I would like opinions from other
developers about what do about it.
Files are written when the session is explicitly flushed or closed, or
automatically when the object goes out of scope.
In your example, I'm not sure either happens before the end of the
script.
I suspect this would work for you:
# Braces establish scope
{
$sid = $query->cookie("MySesId") || undef;
$session = new CGI::Session(undef, $sid,
{Directory=>"$server_path/cgi-bin/session/"}) or die
CGI::Session->errstr;
}
Are you saying your application broke after the upgrade, because
CGI::Session 3.95 was automatically flushing your session to disk with
your
example code, but 4.02 isn't?
