If you would like to use "binary" session data like mcrypt encrypted data, you'll need most recent PHP7 build. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-09-19 06:44:58] alec at alec dot pl I've got the same issue. Don't you think the error is misleading or at least gives no clue about where the issue is? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-09-19 01:42:41] yohgaki@php.net New example code is in svn. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-09-19 01:41:24] yohgaki@php.net Automatic comment from SVN on behalf of yohgaki Revision: http://svn.php.net/viewvc/?view=revision&revision=337850 Log: Fixed bug #70520 - Update and improve example code ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-09-18 22:45:22] yohgaki@php.net Oops. I forgot to modify key string to be static string. $key = substr(sha1(random_bytes(24)), 0, 24); should be something like $key = 'secret_string'; ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
