Re: [fw-auth] authentication timing out by default?

If you are using version control, you can try to roll back to see if you find the issue. You can rule out (or in) firefox obviously by trying another browser. Has the version of PHP changed as well?

I have been working on this project for longer than I care to admit, and up until recently, the behavior was if you get logged in, you stay logged in until you either close your browser or explicitly log yourself out. Without my having touched any of the code that handles authentication, now, suddenly, I find that I come back from lunch or whatever and have to log back in. What in my dev environment has changed now, as opposed to then? Well, unfortunately, more than one thing. I upgraded my Ubuntu distro from 9.4 to 9.10 and along with it, my Firefox; I also upgraded ZF to 1.10.2 from... I forget what. 1.10.0 I believe.

It seems there are a few possibilities. Is it conceivable that PHP is garbage-collecting the file-based session data prematurely? Or is this some kind of Firefox misfeature (he was away from his desk for too long, let's log him out)? Or has the behavior of Zend_Auth changed lately? Any advice as to how to track down the issue and correct?
