I am programming a shopping cart. So far I have used $_SESSION['order'][$reference]['quantity'] = 0; if the customer changed their mind about buying an item.

[PHP] $_session/$_cookie trouble
I am trying to set a cookie and a session, but seem to be running into a
wall.
I have tried different variations, and keep getting the same error message
If I have this
?php
session_start();
I get this:

Whatever it is on line 2 of assessresult.inc.php that is causing output
to be started!
More seriously, there is something on line 2 of that file that is
causing something to be sent to the browser, which in turn causes the
http headers to be sent. Once those headers have been sent, nothing else
that wants to send headers, which includes starting the session and
setting cookies, can be done.
Either eliminate whatever it is on line 2 that is sending output, or
move the session_start() and/or setcookie() calls above it. (This early
in the file, prime candidate is actually a stray blank line outside your
?php tag, but that's only a guess based on past experience of many
people in this list...!!)
Cheers!
Mike

I would have thought it was obvious, the file assessresult.inc.php is
being called before your session_start(). Have you put your code before
every include?

Re: [PHP] $_session/$_cookie trouble
Igor
Thanks for the link. It was suggested that I must put the session_start()
before all code on the parent page. I am no longer getting the error
messages,so I am assuming I am making progress, however I have yet to be
able to get the $_SESSION or $_COOKIE to produce results...such as the
ability to echo them.
Thanks for your help.

Re: [PHP] $_session/$_cookie trouble
Ashley
There are 3 include files, the first is all html, but it has a form, so I
put the session_start above the DTD and I no longer get the error messages.
I had the session_start at the beginning of the second file, the php
processing file, but that produced the error. It seemed to be calling to
itself (if that does not sound too naive).
As I mentioned in a post above, I am no longer getting the error message,
but have been unable to get either the $_SESSION or the cookie to produce
results...
Thanks for your help.

I would have thought it was obvious, the file assessresult.inc.php is
being called before your session_start(). Have you put your code before
every include?

Take the values out of single quotes, else it sets them as strings,
and not as the variable value. Also, are you meaning to set the
cookie's expiration to time()-3600? Try time()+3600.

Looks to me like you are trying to set and retrieve a cookie on the same
page. It doesn't work that way. Set it, access it on the next page...
or, set it, and then redirect to the same page.. being sure to send a
flag to hide the setcookie function to avoid the dreaded infinite loop.
Also, Setting a cookie's expire param to history will delete it... so
I don't think that is what you want to do.

Maybe I'm missing something, but why are you using session vars and
cookie vars like you are? If you start a session it creates a cookie to
track the session and the session persists your session vars. Why not
just use session vars?

Hi, I've just installed PHP 5.2.4 on a FC 7 with a web server. $ php -v PHP 5.2.4 (cli) (built: Sep 18 2007 08:50:58) Copyright (c) 1997-2007 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2007 Zend Technologies It seems some PHP module might be missing, I tested it with a page1.php: session_start(); $_SESSION['favcolor'] = 'green'; Then I click a link in page1.php to go another page2.php: session_start(); echo favcolr = . $_SESSION['favcolor']; It only displayed favcolr =, it was empty in $_SESSION['favcolor']. The test script page1.php and page2.php are working fine on other machines. I checked with php modules, the session is there. What could I be missing in PHP modules or setup?

[PHP] $_SESSION NOT WORKING
Hi everyone,
I'm having a problem moving my code to a linux computer.
I won't post the whole code here, but an accurate example that
reproduces exactly the error.
// 1.php
?php
session_register('tree');
$_SESSION['tree'] = This is tree number one;
header(Location: 2.php);
?
// 2.php
?php
print_r($_SESSION, false);
?
// php.ini (incomplete)
session.save_handler = files
session.save_path = /tmp/php/sessions/ o ;C:/temp/php/sessions for Windows
session.use_cookies = 1
session.name = cito
session.auto_start = 1
session.cookie_lifetime = 0
session.cookie_path = /
session.cookie_domain =
session.cookie_httponly =
session.serialize_handler = php

The web server is Apache 2.2 with php 5.24 for both, Linux Windows.
In Linux the Apache server is run by the 'apache' user, which has
reading, writing and execution grants on /tmp/php/sessions/
The output for 2.php is:
Array ( [tree] = This is tree number one )
is what I get on Windows, but on Linux I get:
Notice: Undefined variable: _SESSION in /var/www/html/2.php on
line 2
I don't know what the error is, but something evident is that on Linux
session.auto_start = 1 is NOT working properly.
On Windows it is not necessary to explicitly start the session to use
the $_SESSION, so no need to session_start().
If on Linux I add session_start() at the top of each script, the script
executes well.
I want to know why session.auto_start does not work on Linux.

Re: [PHP] $_SESSION NOT WORKING
Yes, that way it works. Thanx. But the Windows version of the same code and the same php.ini ***does not *** need the session_start() because it has the session.auto_start = 1 inside php.ini. The thing is, I think session.auto_start = 1 does not work on Linux. Is this a bug?

Re: [PHP] $_SESSION v. Cookies
I can't see PHP sessions slowing down your site by that amount. As someone said, it should be no more than a split second. If you are having that much of a problem with them, then I would say it is either your implementation, or another determining factor. I would not, personally, stray away from PHP's GC of sessions. I would imagine that any third-party concoction could not be any faster. I would however, check to see how long PHP takes to clean up defunct sessions, and also monitor how many sessions are lying around at any given time.

[PHP] $_SESSION v. Cookies
Dear PHP List, PHP 5, Apache2, MySQL 5, running on Ubuntu, viewing deving with FireFox and Konqueror (Linux). I am building a site with multiple tools and want to pass variables throughout them all. Before, I was passing variables using hidden HTML Form tags, but the site has grown too large for this tactic, so I went to using $_SESSION. However, when I started using $_SESSION, my site loads 3-5 times slower then before. A page that queried MySQL and built itself in 3-5 seconds was now taking 15-20. While more has changed then just $_SESSION, it is really the only significant difference. Is $_SESSION slowing down my site? Is there a faster alternative to global variables then using $_SESSION? Are using regular cookies faster? Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Scott -- Scott Campbell If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten.

I can't see the stock PHP solution adding anything more than a split second to your page time. The exception being when it performs cleanup. Cleanup should be relegated to a cron job. Have you added anything new to the database? new query perhaps on a large table that doesn't make use of indexes? Small changes can have a bigger impact than large changes depending on what exactly changed.

If you pass it to ini_set(), it will appear to work -- you won't get an error and successive calls to phpinfo() will show the new value; however, by the time PHP gets far enough down the chain to execute your ini_set() command, PHP has already determined whether it should register global variables. The manual indicates that this wasn't always the case, but (not knowing the internals then or now) I don't understand how.

sorry tedd; obviously i was hasty to post. but i figured just looking for
the obvious would be a good exercise as i cant count the times ive launched
into an exhaustive search for the problem when its really something silly
ive overlooked. that said; i know ur smart and you always post hard
problems for 'the gang' ;)
anyway, taking the cue from some of the other responses, have you looked at
the page on session_write_close() ?
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.session-write-close.php
its kind of interesting; it looks like lots of people have run into issues
using the location header to redirect clients to another script after a form
submission. its never happened to me (knock on wood) but anyway some of the
posts on that page may be worth reading.
also, though it wont answer your question about why its happening, i was
thinking you might alter the flow of ur scripts to see if you can get the
same behavior on both sites. heres what i was thinking:
add a hidden input to the form (from index.php)
input type=hidden name=formsubmission value=1 /
then after you call session_start() in index.php, have the following
if(isset($_POST['formsubmission']) $_POST['formsubmission'] == '1')) {
include('part2.php'); // process form submission
}
then, make the following adjustments to part2.php
remove the call to session_start()
remove the call to header(location ...
remove the call to exit()
i think this will have the effect that the work flow is unaltered, but the
organization of the logic on the back end will be different. effectively
the call to header(location... will be removed so we would be able to tell
if the issue is related to that.

Re: [PHP] $_SESSION problem
it looks fine to me. but i want to share one bad experience with sessions.
the code i wrote work just fine on my testing server (please note, the
phpinfo is same with
my production server).
after days of figuring out why the session do not work. finally, i found the
solutions.
the solutions is to add a
@session_write_close() on the end of the execution code. on my case it
happen
every time i forward the page. so adding the @session_write_close before the
header('location: ') fix the problem.
this might be a possible explanation..
Re: [PHP] $_SESSION problem
I believe you can accomplish the same thing by just putting this in:
register_shutdown_function('session_write_close');

[PHP] $_SESSION variable gets lost on FORM action
Hi,
I'm working on a website and one of the features that I've implemented
so far is the user timeout.
Every time that a user browses to a different page, the variable named
$_SESSION['user']['lastactive'] is updated to the current time.
However, before that, my PHP scripts check if the session for this user
had timed out or not...
The script that checks that is named session.php and it is included in
every file. If it detects a timeout, it sets a variable
$_SESSION['form']['errors'] to a string ('Your session has expired...
Bla, bla, bla...') and then redirects to the login.php and the user will
see that he his being asked to login again for the reason displayed.
Everything works great except in one situation... If the timeout period
happens when the user is filling a form, the action that it executes
(process.php) will also include session.php and it sets the error string
but when it redirects to login.php the $_SESSION['form']['errors']
variable is empty...
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks

You must be unsetting the individual $_SESSION['form']['errors'] variable
or the entire $_SESSION array somewhere in there.

Hi Davis, thanks for the reply.
I think that I've found the problem... But if you (or anyone else) can
confirm I would appreciate.
Sometimes in my code I use the Header('Location: index.php?var=value');
and I've found out (I think) that when one of these headers are executed
by PHP, the rest of the script gets executed.
I'm thinking that this is the problem because I've eliminated all the
occurrences where the SESSION var was cleared until only one exists and
it was after a Location Header.
I've put an exit(); after the header and the problem was gone... :)
Is this the correct PHP/HTML behavior or is there another problem? Am I
supposed to put an exit(); after a header Location to make sure that
no more code gets executed?
Thanks

Redirecting using a Location header is not the only thing you can do
with the header() function. It will never end processing of the script
no matter what you pass to it. The example on the manual page for the
header() function says as much (http://php.net/header), you read that right?
?php
header(Location: http://www.example.com/;); /* Redirect browser */
/* Make sure that code below does not get executed when we redirect. */
exit;

I've compared the php.ini files and can't find anything related to sessions
that is different. In fact they're almost the same with a few minor
exceptions that should have no effect that I can think of.
Here is the code I'm executing:
?php
[SNIP DATABASE LOAD, ETC.]
echo BUserData array = /BBR\n;
print_r($UserData);
//set the session variables:
$_SESSION['login'] = true;
$_SESSION['ie'] =
(stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'],MSIE)) ? true : false;
$_SESSION['id'] = $UserData['id'];
$_SESSION['username'] = $UserData['username'];
$_SESSION['firstname'] = $UserData['firstname'];
$_SESSION['lastname'] = $UserData['lastname'];
$_SESSION['email'] = $UserData['email'];
$_SESSION['foo']= '1234567890';
require_once('includes/classes/User.class.php');
$_SESSION['user'] = new User($UserData['id']);
echo PB_SESSION array = /BBR\n;
var_dump($_SESSION);
echo PBUSERNAME/B = .$_SESSION['user']-get_username().BR\n;
exit;
?
Which properly results in this (as it's all on the same page):
UserData array =
Array ( [id] = 1 [firstname] = Daevid [lastname] = Vincent [email] =
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ) snip
_SESSION array =
array(9) { [login]= bool(true) [ie]= bool(true) [id]= string(1) 1
[username]= string(6) daevid [firstname]= string(6) Daevid
[lastname]= string(7) Vincent [email]= string(17)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [foo]= string(10) 1234567890 [user]=
object(User)#2 (24) { [username:protected]= string(6) daevid
[firstname:protected]= string(6) Daevid [lastname:protected]=
string(7) Vincent [email:protected]= string(17) [EMAIL PROTECTED] ...
snip } }
USERNAME = daevid
Now I load a simple session loading test page with this code:
?php
require_once('includes/classes/User.class.php');
session_start();
echo BSESSION TEST:P/B;
var_dump($_SESSION);
exit;
?
On the working box things are fine (obviously):
SESSION TEST:
array(9) { [login]= bool(true) [ie]= bool(true) [id]= string(1) 1
[username]= string(6) daevid [firstname]= string(6) Daevid
[lastname]= string(7) Vincent [email]= string(17)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [foo]= string(10) 1234567890 [user]=
object(User)#1 (24) { [username:protected]= string(6) daevid
[firstname:protected]= string(6) Daevid [lastname:protected]=
string(7) Vincent [email:protected]= string(17) [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[timestamp:protected]= string(19) -00-00 00:00:00 ... snip } }
but on the broken box I see:
SESSION TEST:
array(9) { [login]= bool(true) [ie]= bool(true) [id]= string(1) 1
[username]= string(6) daevid [firstname]= string(6) Daevid
[lastname]= string(7) Vincent [email]= string(17)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [foo]= string(10) 1234567890 [user]=
object(User)#1 (20) { [username:protected]= string(0)
[firstname:protected]= string(0) [lastname:protected]= string(0)
[email:protected]= string(0) [timestamp:protected]= NULL ... snip
} }
Notice how the regular session info is there, but the User class is all
empty or NULL. So SOME of the $_SESSION is working, but not the User class
portion. This is completely baffling to me. Examining the /tmp/sess_* file
shows this same data.
Here is the session portion of php.ini on the broken box:
[Session]

RE: [PHP] $_SESSION saves all values but Class -- works on one server but not another?! [second plead for help]
No no no. I'm NOT passing data between servers. It's just two pages on the same server. One that sets up the session/class and the other page just re-loads the session. When I talk about two different servers, I copy the entire source/db schema from one server to the other so they are clones for all intents and purposes. One server works the way I'd expect. The other doesn't. SAME code on both. Same schema. Nearly identical LAMP versions. This is why I'm saying, it's not my PHP code or database or anything like that. It must be some kind of server configuration, but I can't figure out what it would be.

RE: [PHP] $_SESSION saves all values but Class -- works on one server but not another?!
You are correct, however that also seems to have to do with the actual class or php code and not a server configuration. If I copy my PHP files to the 'other' server, everything works as expected -- no change in code required. This is why I suspect it is a PHP/Apache/php.ini type of problem. But as I tried to illustrate, the php.ini seems to be nearly the same on both servers. -Original Message- From: Richard Lynch [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 19, 2006 2:46 PM To: Daevid Vincent Cc: php-general@lists.php.net; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [PHP] $_SESSION saves all values but Class -- works on one server but not another?!

Plus, with the session_start() in there, you're going to duplicate all the effort you've already gone to to build up the session data structure (overhead). At that point in your script, you could just include (c) and be done with it. It's a heck of a lot easier to debug without feeling like you're the pinball in a fast-paced game of HTTP redirects, imho. You also make life easier on cURL and other programmatic access of your site, if you don't force them to play follow the bouncing ball to track down what they asked for. Just give it to them already. :-) I played with header(Location: ) in my early PHP days, and stopped using it rather quickly, unless I actually have a URL I want to maintain for the search engines for awhile, but the document has actually moved. Just because the re-direct works doesn't make it the best answer. Others on this list just LOVE to have a bunch of header(Location: ) statements in their PHP code, so you are not alone.

[PHP] $_SESSION
Hello all, i have a question concerning the $_SESSION stuff. i have a domain registered with online webspace on this webspace i have put a litte bit of code that will send the visitor's of the website to my server using a frame. I open one frame full-screen size and i let it open MY_IP/base/index.php as page. i then have a login page which uses $_SESSION and which sends you to either MY_IP/login1/index.php or MY_IP/login2/index.php depending on your username. (which are stored in mysql) this all works fine. i get redirected to the right page and all. but then on the new page the session doesn't work anymore. so the user gets a error for not being logged in and returns to the login page at /base AND here's the strange thing.. when i open it using the http://MY_IP link it all works great. it just doesn't when i use the frame via my hosting provider. So i tried to make a fram on my site which is exactly the same as the frame at the hosting provider. And it all works great aswell. just not when i place the frame at my Hosting Prov. has anybody got a clue how to do this? thanx Dennis

Subject: [PHP] $_SESSION - Learning
Hi
I am finally starting to try and use register_globals = off on my Servers.
This means a lot of code that has to be checked and changed.
Unfortunatly I am struggeling to come to grips with this new concept (new
to
me that is) and was wondering if anybody could give me some pointers.
Getting stumped at my login script.
Once I have checked user and passwords, I pass a few SESSION vars to use
throughout my app.
snip
if ($status == 1)
{
//initiate a session
session_start();
//register session variables
$_SESSION['SESSION'];
//Get DataBase details and connect to it
include($root_path . include/vars.php);
$query = SELECT * FROM admin WHERE user_name = '$user';
$result = mysql_query($query);
$row = mysql_fetch_object($result);
//include the username
$_SESSION['SESSION_UNAME'] = $row-user;
//include the user id
$_SESSION['SESSION_UID'] = $row-admin_id;
//set the SecLevel Session Var
$_SESSION['SESSION_SEC'] = $row-sec_level;
//Now do the redirect
//redirect to Admin Page
header(Location: ./admin_main.php);
exit();
}
else
/snip
Where ever I have the $SESSION['var_name'] I used to have a
session_register(SESSION_VAR);
$SESSION_VAR = $row-user;
I then redirect to my app main page and check if a session is registerd to
make sure a user is logged in:
//check that each page is secure
session_start();
//OLD CODE IN SCRIPT = if (!session_is_registered(SESSION))
if(isset($_SESSION['SESSION']))
{
//if session check fails, invoke error handler
header(Location: ./../error.php?e=2);
exit();
}

That all works fine, but when I finaly start to display data on the main
page, nothing shows up.
One of the things I try to display is the name of the user logged in:
From the login script
//include the username
$_SESSION['SESSION_UNAME'] = $row-user;
then on my main page
echo logged in as b . $_SESSION['SESSION_UNAME'] . /b ;
Needless to say, no data is displayed. anybody able to point out what
I
am getting wrong here. It used to work fine before the old way with
register_globals = on.
SIDE Note:
On a Windows PC with Apache, PHP and MySQL installed, even with the
register_globals = on set, the SESSION vars do not work.
Thanks and sorry for the long post,

[PHP] $_SESSION - Learning
Hi
I am finally starting to try and use register_globals = off on my Servers.
This means a lot of code that has to be checked and changed.
Unfortunatly I am struggeling to come to grips with this new concept (new to
me that is) and was wondering if anybody could give me some pointers.
Getting stumped at my login script.
Once I have checked user and passwords, I pass a few SESSION vars to use
throughout my app.
snip
if ($status == 1)
{
//initiate a session
session_start();
//register session variables
$_SESSION['SESSION'];
//Get DataBase details and connect to it
include($root_path . include/vars.php);
$query = SELECT * FROM admin WHERE user_name = '$user';
$result = mysql_query($query);
$row = mysql_fetch_object($result);
//include the username
$_SESSION['SESSION_UNAME'] = $row-user;
//include the user id
$_SESSION['SESSION_UID'] = $row-admin_id;
//set the SecLevel Session Var
$_SESSION['SESSION_SEC'] = $row-sec_level;
//Now do the redirect
//redirect to Admin Page
header(Location: ./admin_main.php);
exit();
}
else
/snip
Where ever I have the $SESSION['var_name'] I used to have a
session_register(SESSION_VAR);
$SESSION_VAR = $row-user;
I then redirect to my app main page and check if a session is registerd to
make sure a user is logged in:
//check that each page is secure
session_start();
//OLD CODE IN SCRIPT = if (!session_is_registered(SESSION))
if(isset($_SESSION['SESSION']))
{
//if session check fails, invoke error handler
header(Location: ./../error.php?e=2);
exit();
}
?
That all works fine, but when I finaly start to display data on the main
page, nothing shows up.
One of the things I try to display is the name of the user logged in:
From the login script
//include the username
$_SESSION['SESSION_UNAME'] = $row-user;
then on my main page
echo logged in as b . $_SESSION['SESSION_UNAME'] . /b ;

[PHP] $_SESSION vs Database Call
Just wondering, what is faster / more effecient, storing a value in the session variable which gets stored on the filesystem (from what i understand) or database calls to re-get the information? Chris -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] $_SESSION vs Database Call
The difference between the two probably works out to less than 10 milliseconds on most servers, from a quick study that I ran on some HP servers that were brand new last summer, with the faster times using the filesystem. Course, the flexibility gained in managing the database version caused us to ask, would any of our users notice a 10 millisecond difference in response? Answer was; only the paranoid would notice the difference ;-). Course our user population was relatively small (100 - 500 concurrently signed on).

[PHP] $_SESSION
I've got a question that I'm sure has a simple answer. Why aren't my session objects transferring across more than one page? I'm calling a session object that was set in the page prior; $_SESSION['mysessionvar'] = $_REQUEST['mytxtobj']; I then assign a variable that value; $myvar = $_SESSION['mysessionvar']; echo $myvar; This displays like I expected. However when I go to the next page and want to display this var again I get either an Undefined index or variable. According to the docs $_SESSION[] is now global and this is the way of setting and retrieving session objects, right? I have tried calling that session object again but it's empty and so is the variable. I thought that the session would stay open until I close the browser and I could return those values any time I wanted. Am I missing something? alex hogan ** The contents of this e-mail and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.

[PHP] Re: PHP $_SESSION Expiring in IE
IE and Moz have different JAVA script engines. Try turning off JAVA and see if IE maintains it's session. Tarrant Costelloe wrote: Hello, I have recently launched the new Planet-Tolkien.com, one would think that writing a message board from scratch and a dynamic weather system, a simple session login would be the least of my problems right? Wrong. It would appear that for Mozilla and Opera keep a $_SESSION is not an issue and the $_SESSION is continued until the member logs out. However when members are using Internet Explorer browser (most versions it seems), they can go around the site for varied amounts of time, usually less than five minutes and then their $_SESSION will expire!!?? I cannot for the life of me figure out why a server side $_SESSION would expire on IE but not for MOZ or Opera but it is, and I need to figure out why and how can I fix this. REF. All login information is saved as such: session_save_path($path/sessions); session_start(); $_SESSION['session_memberID']=$session_memberID; $_SESSION['session_username']=$session_username; $_SESSION['session_groupID']=$membergroup; In Fellowship, Tarrant -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] PHP $_SESSION Expiring in IE
Guess I'm being nosy here, so forgive me, but why are you settting an
alternate save path and using ini_set at the start of each document? I know
that has nothing to do with the problem, but I was just wondering. Are you
hosting multiple sites off your server and have different session settings
depending on the site?
-Kirk
session_save_path($some_path/sessions);
ini_set('session.use_cookies', 1);
ini_set('session.gc_probability', 1);
ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime', 60 * 60);
ini_set('session.auto_start', '1');
session_start();
header(Cache-control: private);
