ID: 18996
User updated by: frank@orite.com
Reported By: frank@orite.com
Status: Open
Bug Type: Session related
Operating System: Redhat Linux 7.3
PHP Version: 4.2.2
New Comment:
Actually I can unset the variables without problem by using
session_unregister() or session_unset();
However from the PHP Manual, these two functions are defered as:
Note: If $_SESSION (or $HTTP_SESSION_VARS for PHP 4.0.6 or less) is
used, use unset() to unregister a session variable.
Caution
If you are using $HTTP_SESSION_VARS/$_SESSION and disable
register_globals, do not use session_register(),
session_is_registered() and session_unregister().

I have same problem on my Windows Machine running IIS 5.1 PHP 4.2.2 as
well.

Apache/1.3.23 (Unix) (Red-Hat/Linux)
register_globals = Off
[Session]
session.save_handler = files
session.save_path = /tmp
session.use_cookies = 1
session.name = PHPSESSID
session.auto_start = 0
session.cookie_lifetime = 0
session.cookie_path = /
session.cookie_domain =
session.serialize_handler = php
session.gc_probability = 1
session.gc_maxlifetime = 1440
session.referer_check =
session.entropy_length = 0
session.entropy_file =

;session.entropy_file = /dev/urandom
session.cache_limiter = nocache
session.cache_expire = 180
session.use_trans_sid = 1
url_rewriter.tags =
"a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=fakeentry"
I was trying to test the session via two pages, test.php and test2.php.
Following are the scripts and results come up:
test.php
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION["user"]="foo";
echo "set:".$_SESSION["user"];
unset($_SESSION);
echo "<br>unset:".@$_SESSION["user"];
?>
result on page:
set:foo
unset:
test2.php
<?php
session_start();
echo "set:".$_SESSION["user"];
echo "<br>unset:".@$_SESSION["user"];
?>
result on page:
set:foo
unset:foo
I've also tried to put up a session_destory() in test.php, that helps
to unset the variable, but simply the session no longer exists.
Does anyone has the same problem, or any answers to this issue?
