So I finally figured out why the sessions keep mysteriously dropping on my blackberry. The symptoms are simple. Login to the cake app, and you get to the first logged in page. Then when you click on anything else to take you deeper into the site, you get redirected back to the login page.
The problem was that this was only really happening in the test staging site and not on my development site. So I 'diff -r' the directories, and the only differences I could find were in the core.php files. In the development site, I have debug set to level 2, and I have the security level to low. In the production training site I have security level set to high. Lo-and-behold, changing the security level to low would allow for the blackberry to continue on its merry way. I then ratcheted the staging site up to medium, and the blackberry continued to work. So the only thing I could think of is that the blackberry couldn't handle swapping of session ID's between requests. According to the cakephp cookbook, section 3.4.3.2 High and medium enable session.referer_check, while in high the CakePHP session IDs are regenerated between requests. The blackberry typically goes through a proxy server, so that might be it. -e On Jan 14, 10:25 pm, Elmo <emre...@gmail.com> wrote: > I am having a problem.
