PHP 4.0 Bug #10221: Double session bug

From: sicco@uwnet.nl Operating system: Win2000 PHP version: 4.0.4pl1 PHP Bug Type: *Session related Bug description: Double session bug When a session is used by a 'main' script which causes a new browser window popup that also needs the session information (the session is called twice independently by the same user in one mouse-click) the session will be destroyed most of the time and sometimes PHP crashes. This problem occurs too when a shockwave object is loaded that also calls for the session information. It is possible to prevent this autodestruct by putting an empty echo (e.g.: echo "";) after the second time the session is called (with: session_start();). I'm using MySQL for session storage, maybe this causes the problem. -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=10221&edit=1
