Amasty FPC extension broken after upgrade to OpenMage

After upgrade to OpenMage v19.4.8 or newer version Amasty FPC extension is broken.

Cause

The problem is in Frontend cookie session name. The cookie session name was changed in OpenMage v19.4.8 (see issue #990) and session name was hardcoded in Amasty FPC extension, so it could not detect session properly.

Solution

Obtain a newer Amasty FPC module version or request a patch from Amasty or use the following proven to work changes in the extension:
