defacer 34137668b5 Adding a little more checking to the session switching trap code. 
I 've come across a problem where:

1. You have an "old" (say 1.3.5?) Moodle installation.
2. You are logged in as admin.
3. You suddenly switch to using a 1.5+ codebase with
   the SAME database, WITHOUT LOGGING OUT FIRST.

In this situation, I was presented with a deadlock. I could not do
anything because "my session had expired", and I could not even
log OUT to clear my session. In fact it was just reloading the
"session expired page" all the time.

If it weren't for debug = On which causes a notice in these
circumstances, it would be fracking difficult to understand what
was going on.

With this small addition, you can at least visit your login page
and log in anew, so problem fixed.

I believe this was talked about in the forums lately? Not sure.

QUICK INSTALL
=============

For the impatient, here is a basic outline of the 
installation process, which normally takes me only 
a few minutes:

1) Move the Moodle files into your web directory. 

2) Create a single database for Moodle to store all
   it's tables in (or choose an existing database).

3) Visit your Moodle site with a browser, you should 
   be taken to the install.php script, which will lead
   you through creating a config.php file and then 
   setting up Moodle, creating an admin account etc.

4) Set up a cron task to call the file admin/cron.php
   every five minutes or so.


For more information, see the INSTALL DOCUMENTATION:

   http://moodle.org/doc

If you have real trouble, please visit the Moodle course 
"Using Moodle" on moodle.org.


Good luck and have fun!
