#22741 [Com]: session.bug_compat_warn and session.bug_compat_42 are ignored in the ini file

ID: 22741 Comment by: fbaker at olm1 dot com Reported By: bodgadle at yahoo dot co dot uk Status: No Feedback Bug Type: Session related Operating System: Windows 2000 SP3 PHP Version: 4.3.2-RC New Comment: I found that an 'empty' table causes the error message to be printed. If I put a dummy entry in the table, the error message stops. This is possibly bad code on my part, although the routine works fine otherwise... If the table is empty, the table is empty. Who needs it... :-) That still does not explain the reason we cannot turn off the error message, if in fact we are supposed to be able to, but it's a fix. Actually it might be good to keep the warning? If the empty table 'cause' needs to be fixed, it might be best to do that more elegant code, eh? At least we know the error message works if there's some reason for it to do so, eh? Hope this helps.

No help on any settings in php.ini. Restarted apache with each change. Dev on win98 with apache 1.3.24 and php 4.2.0. Online apache 1.3.27 and php 4.3.1. Vanilla php.ini-recommended had been copied to /etc/php.ini. That was only copy found at first, but then I saw phpinfo looking for it in /usr/local/lib. Must have been using defaults all the way..., whatever they were. But it was running fairly well. :-) Now copied the recommended version into /usr/local/lib/php.ini but unfortunately no help. Floyd ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-22 03:47:29] pipe_mou at hotmail dot com I have the same warning as yours : PHP Warning: Unknown(): Your script possibly relies on a session side-effect which existed until PHP 4.2.3. Please be advised that the session extension does not consider global variables as a source of data, unless register_globals is enabled. You can disable this functionality and this warning by setting session.bug_compat_42 or session.bug_compat_warn to off, respectively. in Unknown on line 0 I resolved the problem setting session.bug_compat_42 = 1 (and On) session.bug_compat_warn = 0 (and Off) and finally register_globals = On I hope it could help you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-04-28 11:14:06] sniper@php.net No feedback was provided.
