ID: 16263 Comment by: steveh at brendata dot co dot uk Reported By: kur at natur dot cuni dot cz Status: No Feedback Bug Type: Session related Operating System: ANY PHP Version: 4.3.0-dev New Comment:
I'm seeing the same issue on 4.3.2 on NT4 and IIS. I get a new session each time I log in, I've dumped the cookie array $_COOKIE and I see an extra cookie created each time with the name of the file in the sessiondata directory. But I thought that there should be a cookie called PHPSESSID or whatever your session name is called? I don't see this cookie, is this the underlying issue? Judging by the number of entries here, I think some effort needs to go into sorting this issue, it's been open and closed more times than.....

Changed to IIS 5 and gave read/write permissions on the session data folder to IUSR_HOSTNAME and sessions started working again. Hope this info leads somebody to the right answer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-03-24 16:09:12] roland at lichti dot de Sorry for this rant, but I'm really pissed off: the session handling problem is reported several times and every time closed as "bogus" or "no feedback". I really think that the programming team has no clue where to look at and should reimplement the whole code related to session handling. It's going on now for at least 1 year and there is no solution in sight :-((( ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-03-10 02:39:09] kasei999 at hotmail dot com Same here, after 3 non-sleeping days and nights I found this forum. I am using win XP with php 4.3.1 + apache 1.3.27 now switching to IIS 5, the problem still exists. Would anyone please try to help? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-03-04 11:58:25] zorman at pina dot info same problems over here ... i'm experiencing this problem only when I redirect the page using header after the authentication is done ... it works fine on my linux computer (php 4.3.0) but fails on win2k with the same distribution ... very annoying ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-08 14:31:45] jmaldonado at webehosting dot biz I just upgraded my servers to 4.3.0 from 4.1.2 and am now experiencing this problem....Sessions are behaving unpredictably in that I can no longer count on the variables I set in the session from one page load to the next... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
