#42899 [NEW]: problems with session_regenerate_id(true)

From: p dot nijs at xs4all dot nl Operating system: Debian Etch PHP version: 5.2.4 PHP Bug Type: Session related Bug description: problems with session_regenerate_id(true) Description: ------------ Session_regenerate_id(true) leaves a bunch of new sessions behind when stress-testing by doing a continue page refresh (F5 in IE/Windows). Reproduce code: --------------- <?php session_start(); $old_sessionid = session_id(); session_regenerate_id(true); $new_sessionid = session_id(); echo "Old Session: $old_sessionid<br />"; echo "New Session: $new_sessionid<br />"; echo "Please look for the amount of newly created sessions in " . session_save_path(); ?> Navigate to this file with your browser and hold F5 continuously for 5 seconds, triggering multiple refreshes after each other. Expected result: ---------------- Only 1 session should be in the session_save_path (the newly generated session only, the old ones should have been deleted). Actual result: -------------- Multiple sessions were created, it seems that the PHP-engine didn't have the time(?) to delete the old sessions. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42899&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42899&r=mysqlcfg
