....Correction

when I use drupal_set_session I get this error (Fatal error: Call to undefined function drupal_set_session() in)

does it work in D7?

The error is most likely cuased by accessing the $_SESSION variable, not setting it. Look for places in your code where test for something like:

$_SESSION['foo']

In if the index 'foo' for the session variable has not been set then you will get this error, because drupal 7 reports notices as well as warnings.

Depending on the situation you may want to recode like this:

if (isset($_SESSION['foo'])

Or like this:

@$SESSION['foo']

The @ operator will suppress errors and warnings in the site for that atomic command. The isset will test whether the index is set without throwing the notice to begin with.
