Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Status: Closed
Bug Type: Session related
Operating System: Windows XP
PHP Version: 4.1.2
New Comment:
Isn't this important enough to make a new binary release for those
without MSVC or new users that probably will get very confused when
sessionmanagement isn't working.
Just an idea. I think that you will be loosing some new users
otherwise.

Oops, this is fixed in CVS and will be fixed in 4.2.0 also.

Sample scripts to show symptoms.
The following script shows that NO session data is stored when you use
the new $_SESSION variables only as described in the PHP manual:
__________________________________________________
<html><head><title>Simple PHP Session Test</title></head>
<body>
Testing PHP Sessions...<p>
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
session_start();
echo "Values at start of script:<br>";
foreach($_SESSION as $key => $value) {
echo "\$_SESSION['$key'] => '$value'<br>";
}
//Set/Increment Counter
if ( !array_key_exists('counter', $_SESSION) ) {
$_SESSION['counter'] = 0;
} else {
$_SESSION['counter']++;
}
echo "Values at end of script:<br>";
foreach($_SESSION as $key => $value) {
echo "\$_SESSION['$key'] => '$value'<br>";
}
?>
</body>
</html>
__________________________________________________
And the modified version of this script uses the older
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS variable along with session_register(), to show that
session_register() creates the initial instance of a session variable,
but no updates occur after that. This is the best I've been able to do
with sessions in 4.1.2, so it's pretty useless at this point.

}

if ( !array_key_exists('counter', $HTTP_SESSION_VARS) ) {
$counter = 0;
session_register('counter');
} else {
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['counter']++;
}
echo "Values at end of script:<br>";
foreach($HTTP_SESSION_VARS as $key => $value) {
echo "\$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['$key'] => '$value'<br>";
}
?>
</body>
</html>

P.S. For what it's worth, session files ARE created in the
session.save_path directory, but other than the latter script, the
files are always 0 bytes and completely empty. Hope this helps track
down the bug.

Also applies to NT 4.0 (sp6a) both Module and CGI $_SESSION
and also $HTTP_SESSION_VARS are dead. From what I can tell
the sess files get created in tmp ok, however nothing ever
gets written to it.

thank you for reply...
I test the $_SESSION use those 3 PHP file...
1.php
===============================
<?php
session_start();
echo '<a href=2.php>TEST</a>';
echo '<hr>SESSION<br>';
foreach($_SESSION as $k => $v)
echo "$k => $v<br>";
$_SESSION['a']='a';
?>
===============================
2.php
===============================
<?php
session_start();
echo '<a href=3.php>TEST</a>';
echo '<hr>SESSION<br>';
foreach($_SESSION as $k => $v)
echo "$k => $v<br>";
$_SESSION['b']='b';
?>
===============================
3.php
===============================
<?php
session_start();
echo '<a href=1.php>TEST</a>';
echo '<hr>SESSION<br>';
foreach($_SESSION as $k => $v)
echo "$k => $v<br>";
$_SESSION['c']='c';
?>
===============================
very simple...
I like use PHP 4.1.x new features($_GET, $_POST, $_SESSION... etc), so
I care about the $_SESSION can right work!
