#32330 [Com]: session_destroy, "Failed to initialize storage module", custom session handler

ID: 32330 Comment by: fteodoro at teatrodetabuas dot com dot br Reported By: mfischer@php.net Status: Assigned Bug Type: Session related Operating System: * PHP Version: 5CVS, 4CVS (2005-03-17) Assigned To: sniper New Comment: Is this discussion opened yet? I think I got a tip in this bug - not the more elegant, but it's working now. I was facing the random "failed to initialize storage module" bug. The bug seems to be related to the physical recording of session data. No worries on my test server (linux + php 4.2.2 + mysql 3.23.54), but all the worries on the web server (php 4.3.11 + mysql 4.0.22). Since I have no access to the commercial server unless ftp, I achieved the trick with a simple .access file, with a simple couple of handlers: php_value session.save_handler files php_value session.save_path /home/domain/htdocs/temp and I haven't received error messages for some days. Too dummy? Hope it works...

It looks like PS(mod) and PS(mod_data) can get out of synch which would cause this. And I think all the others with seemingly unrelated issues are actually related. If PS(mod_data) leaks out of the per-request sandbox and infects subsequent requests all it takes is one application on a server to use its own session handler and it could affect other seemingly trivial standalone session apps on that server. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-05-19 14:09:55] lekhoi at lekhoi dot com dot au I use Window XP -- running Apache SQLite version 2.8.14 PHP version 5.0.4 and am experiencing the same problem of PHP reporting error when calling session_start() I have never have this problem before. However, I am using SQLiteManager ver 1.0.6 and during the development stage I came across this problem. This problem occurs quite randomly specially when I try to modify the database structure or have troubled sql statement. It feels and sounds like a memory leak problem with SQLite functions. I have to stress that I come across this only when using SQLiteManager. I have used and configured session using SQLite as the database for sessions storing and never have a problem. To fix this, I restart Apache, and it works everytime. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-05-17 21:01:39] semorales at segob dot gob dot mx Any notice about this bug? I'm thinking about using the handler but I'm afraid it will crash my server. Please let me know. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-30 11:31:53] dmih at in-solve dot ru I've added several notes as this bug (marked as bogus): http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=32897 Please consider them, as it seems that it is about this bug really. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-19 07:37:14] labsy at seznam dot org Since this bug is non-persistent, it is very hard to reproduce. Now, since I run PHP 5.0.2 as ISAPI module, I did a change and added php5isapi.dll also as ISAPI FILTER under web site properties in IIS. I don't have a slight idea what would that change, but it seems to solve problem - I hope. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
