Bug #16807 Updated: Sessions not working

ID: 16807 Updated by: chris@dvdplaza.com.au Reported By: martin_jones@bigfoot.com Status: Open Bug Type: Session related Operating System: Windows 2000 SP2 PHP Version: 4.2.0 New Comment: I'm having a similar issue - every since switching to PHP 4.2 I've got sh#tloads of viewers reporting login problems to our forums (vBulletin), they keep getting prompted to login. Weird part is it's not everyone, I and others have no problems at all. Reverting back to PHP 4.1.x solves it, upgrading to PHP 4.2 brings it back. register_globals is ON Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-30 16:45:24] martin_jones@bigfoot.com The 'solution' above is not valid for this case. PHP should not generate the 'headers already sent' message at all in this case. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-30 14:27:10] martin_jones@bigfoot.com Can someone please fix this, since it is not a configuration problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-30 05:29:02] renato@ostorero.it Found solution here: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=16839 Thx Renato ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-30 04:48:41] renato@ostorero.it I'v got the same problem here. Same configuration W2K SP2 IIS5 same recomended php.ini file. When a script calls for: session_start or setcookie like Jelsoft vBulletin nothing happen. The same things for all my scripts. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-25 04:00:49] martin_jones@bigfoot.com My ini file is the php.ini-recommended The session stuff is: session.save_handler = files session.save_path = c:\winnt\temp (tried c:/winnt/temp too) session.use.cookies = 1 session.name = PHPSESSID session.auto_start = 0 session.cookie_lifetime = 0 session.cookie_path = / session_cookie_domain = session.serialize_handler = php session_gc_probability = 1 session.gc_maxfiletime = 1440 session.referer_check = session.entropy_length = 0 session.entropy_file = session.cache_limiter = nocache session.cache_expire = 180 session.use_trans_sid = 1 output_buffering = 4096 output_handler = zlib.output_compression = Off auto_prepend_file = auto_append_file = I hope this is enough info. As I say, it is the recommended ini file with a few minor changes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
