What are some common issues with PHP sessions expiring too quickly?

Common issues with PHP sessions expiring too quickly can be caused by misconfigured session settings or server configurations. To solve this issue, you can try increasing the session timeout value in the php.ini file or using the session_set_cookie_params() function to set a longer expiration time for the session cookies. 

// Increase session timeout value in php.ini file
// session.gc_maxlifetime = 1440 (for example)

// OR use session_set_cookie_params() function
session_set_cookie_params(3600); // set session cookie expiration time to 1 hour

session_start();
