XAMPP session not working (wpec and woocommerce)
===

I'm developing two sites that incorporate the WP E-Commerce and woocommerce plugin, respectively. In both cases, the cart will not save any added items. The consensus seems to be, there must be something wrong with server sessions. I'm running XAMPP on Mac.

I've checked the session.save_path in my php.ini. It's solid :) In fact, cookies are written to the specified folder (/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/temp/ by default but even if I change the destination, cookies are written to it). When I open the cookies with a text editor, I can see that the product name and quantity is indeed recorded (in the case of WPEC). It seems it just doesn't want to give back that info... I set permissions to 777 on pretty much every and anything that could have anything to do with it but to no avail.

I'm also not getting a "Session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot Send Session" error that a lot of people are experiencing due to an incorrect session.save_path.

Pretty stumped. Any pointers would be much appreciated!

Thanks!
