#29078 [Fbk->Opn]: sessions fail

ID: 29078 User updated by: jasonm304 at hotmail dot com Reported By: jasonm304 at hotmail dot com -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: Session related Operating System: Windows XP PHP Version: 4.3.7 New Comment: I have found out by further testing that this is not a php issue. I found out that my Firewall was blocking the use of sessions. If i moved to more than one php page the session data would be lost due to the firewall.

I know that the code works as it was on another PC working fine. But the seesions are not kept and fall over. i have a front form which posts the name and ID. It is checked with a MYSQL DB and made into a session. Reproduce code: --------------- session_start(); $_SESSION["name"] = $UserDetails["Name"]; $_SESSION["userid"] = $UserDetails["UserID"]; header ("Location: login.php"); Expected result: ---------------- The session data is then passed on the login.php i can then use name and user id to give access to site. Actual result: -------------- but when i use print_r($_SESSION) it does not display the session information. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29078&edit=1
