Bug #71289 [Opn]: Using session_name() prevents session_progress features from working

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71289&edit=1 ID: 71289 User updated by: pfenderd at bellsouth dot net Reported by: pfenderd at bellsouth dot net Summary: Using session_name() prevents session_progress features from working Status: Open Type: Bug Package: Session related Operating System: Windows 7 PHP Version: 7.0.1 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The problem is a little bit more complicated than first thought. When a browser is first opened and a session started using session_name() before session_start() the problem will continue to occur. However, if a session is opened without using session_name() just once, then thereafter the use of session_name() will not cause a problem. This is repeatable with IE 11, Firefox 43.0.4, Chrome 47.0.2526.106 and Opera 34.0.2036.31. Test using session_name(): http://dayspeaknet.djpnet.dyndns.org/upload_sermons/upx/form1.php Test without using session_name(): http://dayspeaknet.djpnet.dyndns.org/upload_sermons/upx/form1.php?sn=0 The only difference between these two test URLs is the use of session_name() or not. Closing the browser and opening the browser again creates the problem situation.

In my test case, the only difference between a working version and the failed version is the used of session_name(). Without using session_name(), the session_progress feature works very well. I currently use session_name() to differentiate sessions when using the same browser to access different web pages in different tabs that show data from different websites on the same server. This feature works well except for the session_progress feature. Test script: --------------- $session_name_str = "upload_session"; session_name($session_name_str); session_start(); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71289&edit=1
