RE: [PHP-INST] PHP4 Works but Sessions Don't!!

1) Do you get any errors back (check your error log if you can)? 2) Maybe your host/machine does not have the correct permissions set on their /tmp directory to allow you to write the session file. 3) Probably a stupid idea, but just in case, do you have cookies enabled on your browser? -----Original Message----- From: hrdware [mailto:hrdware@sympatico.ca] Sent: Saturday, May 19, 2001 1:30 PM To: php-install@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-INST] PHP4 Works but Sessions Don't!! Greetings, I have been trying to figure this out for hours now. I used php to randomly display quotes at the top of a web page. The quotes are taken from a mysql database. PJP seems to be working fine. But when I tried to learn about sessions, I quickly realized sessions doesn't work! I have people from #PHP on OpenProjects take a look at the code and try the links themselves and it doesn't work and no one can figure out why!! A few people took the exact source off my site and then set up a test on their machines and it worked fine! I am at a loss, here is all the info I can provide, please let me know if you need more info! output of phpinfo() : http://hotrs.mindriot.net/hotrs/phptest/phpinfo.php main page with working php/mysql script: http://hotrs.mindriot.net/hotrs/index.php http://hotrs.mindriot.net/hotrs/index.phps first session example from a tutor on the net: (NOT WORKING) http://hotrs.mindriot.net/hotrs/phptest/tutor1.php http://hotrs.mindriot.net/hotrs/phptest/tutor1.phps second session example from a book!
