Meta data API throws INVALID_SESSION_ID

I used SF Metadata API(18.0) to check whether a page exist in a given account using existing sessions.
I used existing session ID to connect SF through Metadata API. 
I have two SF accounts for test purposes. Both accounts have session expiry over 2 hours.
But Metadata API does not work for one of the two accounts.
(Further I see both the accounts work fine with the SF web service API)
 
Could anyone please point out why Metadata API successful only in one account? Please see the below error trace:
