What is the domain name of the new host and the old one? If they
are in different domains, the browser won't send cookies (including
the session cookie) from one domain to another. Do you have
cross-links between virtual hosts? It looks like you are using
host-only cookies (session.cookie_domain unset), so cookies won't
be passed by the browser between hosts.
