Hi,
i'm trying to use zend session in an application.
In my boostrap i have the following:
Bootstrap.php:
Zend_Session::start();
and
protected function _initOutlet(){
$out = new Zend_Session_Namespace('outlet');
if (!isset($out->outlet)) {
echo 'outlet initialised...';
$file = '/var/www/pimp/application/configs/outlet-config.xml';
$config = new Outlet_Configuration_Xml();
$config->load($file);
Outlet::init($config->toArray());
$outlet = Outlet::getInstance();
$outlet->createProxies();
$out->outlet = $outlet;
}
the _initOutlet initilises the outlet ORM and writes the information to the
session.
My first question is, if starting the session in the boootstrap file is the
correct place?
second, it seems like the session gets flushed with every request from the
client. i write a test statement to see if outlet is initialised. it should
show only the first time but it shows up repeatedly. I don't understand why.
I know the information is present in the session, because i'm using it
during user login like this:
the user is presented with a login screen and when clicking 'login' i do the
following in a autorise helper:
$userDao = new UserDAO();
$username = $value;
$password = $context['password'];
$user = $userDao->validateUser($username, $password);
if($user == null){
$this->_error(self::NOT_AUTHORISED);
return false;
}
// write user info to session
$sesuser = new Zend_Session_Namespace('user');
$sesuser->user = $user;
return true;
my UserDAO class does this:
$outletNS = new Zend_Session_Namespace('outlet');
$outlet = $outletNS->outlet;
$pwhash = self::computePasswordHash($password);
$usersfound = $outlet->select('User', 'WHERE username = ? and password
= ?', array($username, $pwhash));
if($usersfound == null){
return null;
}
$user = $usersfound[0];
return $user;
and it works.
in other words it can retrive the outlet info from the session and query the
database.
when the user is authenticated the user information is written to the
session in my validate function and he is forwarded to an welcome page using
$this->_forward.
in this page i can retrive the user info all right like this:
$user = new Zend_Session_Namespace('user');
$this->view->user = $user->user->username;
and use the information in my view.
when the user navigates to the main page ('located' in another controller) i
need the user information again but this time there is a request involved
which seems to clear the session.
because in my controller action i do this:
$this->view->user = $user->user->username;
I receive the following note when running this code:
Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in......
which basically mean that the object is no longer present in the session.
can someone please explain to me what i'm doing wrong?
is it my php setup that is wrong?
session.auto_start off
session.save_handler files
session.use_cookies on.
if other relevant info is needed please let me know.
thanx in advance for any help.
kim
