Hello.
As I've now seen sess_deleted files show up in the php
cache, it seems to be an issue with the sess_deleted php / IE bug.
If I run from cron pretty aggressively
find /var/spool/php -name '*deleted*' -print | xargs -I {} sh -c "ls
-lT {} | /var/qmail/bin/mailsubj "sess_deleted" [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
I detect the file. Maybe some IE users have the date badly set in
their hardware and IE doesn't do
the fall-back aged session deletion.
Can someone help me with the php workaround for squirrelmail to avoid this
and/or
recommend a solid version of php that does a better job of closing
out sessions?
As a quick ugly patch, if I just delete the sess_deleted file from
cron, the effective user would have to
log in again. Wouldn't they get a valid session token the second time around?
thanks.
John

Hello Jonathan
I really think this has something to do with a problem we had in our
system some months ago. More information here:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=12715881
We patched our code so it does not use a SID with a value like 'deleted'
or not a 32 long char string and the problem is gone.
