Bug #61470 [Com]: session_regenerate_id() do not create session file

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61470&edit=1 ID: 61470 Comment by: webmaster at tubo-world dot de Reported by: david at grudl dot com Summary: session_regenerate_id() do not create session file Status: Assigned Type: Bug Package: Session related Operating System: ANY PHP Version: 5.4.0 Assigned To: yohgaki Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: There is no point in having session_regenerate_id create a file and lock. It makes no sense at all since a parallel session_regenerate_id would create a different random ID anyway. All you have to make sure is, that you call session_write_close immediatly AFTER session_regenerate_id as I also explained in #49462 This way, the data will be available on the next request. See also https://github.com/symfony/symfony/issues/7885 So I think the issue can be closed.

Greets Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-28 08:02:46] yohgaki@php.net I have to deal with session ID collision detection in session_regenerate_id() for strict session. I think I found what's wrong. Assigned to myself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-27 16:23:37] david at grudl dot com Usage of echo does not matter. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-25 21:00:29] riptide dot tempora at opinehub dot com How much of the bug is caused by having an echo before session_regenerate_id() which tries to send a new cookie to the end-user? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
