Sorry AD7six,
I develop always with FireFox 1.5.0.2 and also tested this with IE 6,
both with the same results.
Further more I don't think it is a wrong server setting on my local
system, the other applications i program also use sessions without
problems. So i really think something is wrong with cake's session
handling on windows. ( but i don't know that much about cake ofcourse )
Because i don't really know what kind of details are needed i'll post
as much as i can think of.
====================
1. A piece of code which sets the session var and a detailed
description of what (should) happen:
<?php
class AuthController extends AppController
{
function index()
{
//login actions
if (empty ($this->params['data']))
{
//show form
//a echo for debugging
echo $_SESSION['user'];
}
else // validate post
{
if( $this->Auth->validate(
$this->params['data']['Auth']['username'],
$this->params['data']['Auth']['password'] ) ){
//$this->Session->write(
'Auth.user',$this->params['data']['Auth']['username'] );
// tested with cake way and the ordinary
way
$_SESSION['user'] =
$this->params['data']['Auth']['username'];
$this->flash('OK', '/auth', 1);
}
else
{
$this->Session->delete( 'Auth.user' );
$this->flash('NOT OK', '/auth', 1);
}
}
}
}
?>
a. First i call this controller. I am then required to login.
b. When my password validates a session vars Auth.user is written in
the session and
c. a flash ( ok ) is given. ( by the way; the flash never redirects me
automatic? maybe a piece of the puzzle?)
d. I click on the link to the same controller, it should now echo my
previously set session var.
On my windows server it does not do this.
On my nix server it functions correctly.....
====================

settings):
