I am using Codeigniter PHP Framework with Tank Auth authentication library. In my config file, I have $config['sess_cookie_name'] = 'ci_session';.

Problem: After logging in, I checked for the cookie using Chrome’s developer tools and found that instead of ci_session, it is something_ci_session where something prefix was automatically added in. This is the same prefix added to all my databases automatically by my web host.

I wonder if its related to the web host, and how I can remove the prefix. Thanks!

    Your web host has to add this prefix in order to keep your app from conflicting with someone else’s app if they should choose the same sess_cookie_name value of ci_session.

    You can’t remove it.

    The method of sharing they’re using is that all of their customers on a given machine are using the same instances of server apps, rather than unique virtual machines running unique services.
