The parameter "name" should also contain be the absolute path to where the session should be saved (yeah, the name is not the best). For example:
C:\Directory\MySession.session

Note that the "overwrite" parameter expects a string boolean value, either "true" or "false".

The API used to support relative paths (or just a name) but its behaviour was undefined, the location where the session ended up being saved was not always the expected.
I guess we could allow that again but always save it to the ZAP's home "session" dir...

The attachment of comment #1 didn't make through.
