Did you also see that the session id is comming in again? Set dbgSession in
EMBPERL_DEBUG and you can watch the session id's in the embperl.log file.

I guess the file where this happens is in a different directory, which is
not underneath the one where the cookie is first send. In this case the
browser will not send the cookie with the id back to EMbperl. To avoid this
problem, simply set EMBPERL_COOKIE_PATH to /
