Where specifically are you calling drupal_set_message()? Do you have a code sample?

What are the settings in Administer > Site configuration > Performance? Do you have any contributed cache modules installed? Is there anything else between you and the web server which might cache the page without the message?

I was having this exact same problem.

This forum post had the solution:

http://drupal.org/node/264132

apparently the id of the anonymous user was changed when I moved the site from development to production or something similar. I issued an update statement on the user table and that was it (the first row was the anonymous user but with uid = 3).

Also this is somewhat old so I'm marking it fixed.

i got same problem and i got a solution...

in database user table content uid=0 is not there thats way it;s not working

solution is : INSERT INTO `users` (`uid`, `name`, `pass`, `mail`, `theme`, `signature`, `signature_format`, `created`, `access`, `login`, `status`, `timezone`, `language`, `picture`, `init`, `data`) VALUES
(0, '', '', '', '', '', NULL, 0, 0, 0, 0, NULL, '', 0, '', NULL);
