Hi guys!

I have three ez installations in the same vps. Two of them vesion 4.3 and one 4.4.

The latest, unlike the other two, returns this message "Your current session handler does not support session administration" in the Back-end Setup > Session Administration page.

Any clue what that can depend on?

From 4.4 sessions are by default handled by PHP directly, which is why you can't manage them from within eZ unless you configure it to use the old features. See http://doc.ez.no/eZ-Publish/Technical-manual/4.x/Reference/Configuration-files/site.ini/Session/Handler.

Thus had to set the Handler within settings>override>site.ini.append.php..

[Session]
