On a Drupal 4.7.5 site I'm running, enabling this module prevents any user other than user 1 from uploading files using the upload module.

Original situation:
File system set to private
All users can perform some file uploads - i.e., pictures to profiles, video files under video module, attaching images under image module, etc.
Access rights for upload module set correctly
But only user 1 can actually attach files to nodes

Any other user can:
- Browse to file
- Click Attach
- See whilst still in edit that the file is listed as being attached
- Submit the node

But then the file disappears - not listed in the node nor is it there when they go back into edit, nor is it in the files directory

I accept this may not be an issue with remember me, but disabling that one module solved the problem for me.

Regards

Patrick

In my assessment the root cause of this is that $_SESSION is reset on every page load when a user logs in and does not tick the 'remember me' checkbox. See this related issue for more information.

As scott.mclewin indicated, probably due to the $_SESSION going missing
