I'm not sure what changed with 2.0, but the scheme that worked in CakePHP
1.2 to integrate SWFUpload no longer works in 2.0. With the old scheme, you
pass the session ID to beforeFilter and connect with the existing session
by setting the ID and starting the session. It's explained here:
http://xpnce.com/?p=69
For whatever reason, this no longer works. I struggled for a while and
finally found a solution that works:
public function __construct($request = null, $response = null) {
if(isset($_POST['PHPSESSID'])) {
Configure::write('debug', 0);
session_id($_POST['PHPSESSID']);
}
parent::__construct($request, $response);
}
It appears that the main issue is that, with CakePHP 2.0, the session is
started before "beforeFilter" and "startupProcess" methods, and once
started, assigning an existing ID does not allow you to connect to the
existing session. By the time those methods are called, a new session has
already been created, and assigning an existing ID simply replaces the new
ID with the old. So, I had to override the constructor to get the ID set
before the session is created.
I wanted to share this info in case someone knows a better way to do this,
and in case anyone else is struggling with it.
Best,
Dyske
