Are you using "files" save handler? I guess not. It looks like I have to document "save handler" authors must create session data (and lock it) upon read when data does not exist yet. ------------------ [yohgaki@dev PHP-master]$ php -v PHP 7.2.14 (cli) (built: Jan 8 2019 09:59:17) ( NTS ) Copyright (c) 1997-2018 The PHP Group Zend Engine v3.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2018 Zend Technologies with Zend OPcache v7.2.14, Copyright (c) 1999-2018, by Zend Technologies [yohgaki@dev PHP-master]$ php <?php ini_set('session.save_path', getcwd()); session_start(['read_and_close' => true]); echo "Sessions: ".count(glob(getcwd().'/sess_*')).PHP_EOL; Sessions: 1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-02-08 14:14:07] sjon at hortensius dot net I don't think this is a bug - all read_and_close does is "result in the session being closed immediately after being read" so it doesn't influence session_start from creating an empty session like it always does - see https://3v4l.org/fLnNI ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-02-08 14:02:06] spam2 at rhsoft dot net hell you use a readonly option and ask why it don't write... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-02-08 13:53:07] piotr at halas dot net dot pl Ini_set is only for test purpose. The problem is that session_start(['read_and_close' => true]) creates new empty session file if no session file is found. This happens also with memcached save_handler. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
