<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I have tried the recipe for persistent
sessions at </font><a href=http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/PersistentSessions><font size=2 face="sans-serif">http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/PersistentSessions
and it appears to work as intended. (FWIW the main reason for implementing
this change was to make the RefreshHomepage setting persist.) However,
RT seems to be touching the sessions (LastUpdated field in the sessions
table) overnight which effectively forces the user's session to be either
reset to default values or lost so that a new one is generated. </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I have two cron jobs that touch either
users or sessions. Nightly at 1am a SQL command is run to cleanup sessions
last updated more than a month ago:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> delete
from sessions where LastUpdated < date_sub(now(), interval 1 month)</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">The second job is a Perl script that
uses the API to update user info from an external data source, and it runs
hourly during business hours.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Any ideas on what could be going on
here?</font>
<br>
