If you customize the session name it won't work ($_SESSION won't contain the upload_progress_ stuff) Test script: --------------- Run the http://php.net/manual/en/session.upload-progress.php test: 1) With default session options 2) With ini_set('session.name', 'foo') before starting the session Expected result: ---------------- $_SESSION["upload_progress_123"] should be available Actual result: -------------- $_SESSION["upload_progress_123"] is not set ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=76808&edit=1
