ID: 16890 Updated by: kalowsky@php.net Reported By: phpbug@ski-info-online.com Status: Feedback Bug Type: Session related Operating System: WinXP PHP Version: 4.2.0 New Comment: So does this post solution by madsosterby fix the problem for the rest of you? I know highly doubtful, but I can hope :) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-14 10:36:42] madsosterby@NOSPAMmail1.stofanet.dk Hi, I tried alot to find the solution.. and PHP works fine under windows 9x and apache. Only testet with : PHP 4.2.2 and Apache 1.3.26 If found that it *ONLY* (for me at least) if I use the dir "C:\tmp". Not if changing to C:\temp and changing it to that dir i php.ini.. strange! Using the php.ini-dist! Change this: *php.ini* register_globals Off; [SESSIONS] session.save_path = /tmp session.cookie_path = / It Works for me now!

I still cant get the sessions - the are registered in my session dir - that I can see. My code works under php 4.x for linux - so .. must be the windows version of PHP.

Values obatined from mySQL in one php script should be passed to the next one rather than re-reading the table. I am running PHP 4.2.1 with MySQL 3.23.49 on Win2k. Wyn. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-06 10:39:11] info@how2pc.de Yes, I get the same error on a Win2K-Server (PHP 4.0.6, MySQL 3.23). The problem started when turning off register_globals. May be its helpful to know, that variables are registered by the session_management but their value is not stored (tested by looking into the session file created): <--cut--> !s_UID|!s_UserInfo|!s_admin| <--cut--> I think its a bug... :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
