#19972 [Opn->Fbk]: Sessiondata randomly gets lost, possibly due to invalid session cookie

ID: 19972 Updated by: iliaa@php.net Reported By: ivo@ibuildings.nl -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Session related Operating System: Redhat Linux PHP Version: 4.2.2 New Comment: There is no patch because the session code has undergone major changes and revisions since the 4.2.2 release. Your best bet is to try to problematic code on a development server and see if the latest version of PHP still has this bug. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-18 06:09:32] ivo@ibuildings.nl I wish I could, but it's a productionserver on which this occurs. Installing a snapshot for this site is too dangerous. Is there a patch for just this specific issue that I might try on our current source? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-18 05:48:06] yohgaki@php.net Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-latest.zip ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-18 03:44:12] ivo@ibuildings.nl I'm experiencing the random loss of sessiondata. (The same symptoms as in bug #19029 and in the comments of bug #19022). While investigating this problem, I found out that the sessioncookie contains this value: HTTP_COOKIE = 1; PHPSESSID=f1faf3374d562e8738f64e7e7e030972; pollvoted[1]=1; (... some other data left out for privacy reasons); PHPSESSID=842be4994a9c424fd7d4f9f8049aadc9 There are two different PHPSESSID cookies! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19972&edit=1
