Title:
auth/session.php incorrectly multiplies $cfg->session_timeout by 60
Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
The user interface code to set the value of $cfg->session_timeout
assumes that the user is entering a number of seconds. It defaults to
86400, which is the number of seconds in 24 hours.
But, the code at the top of htdocs/auth/session.php multiplies this by
60 before entering it into session.gc_maxlifetime. As if it were
minutes rather than seconds.
This hasn't caused us any problems so far (except, probably, a very
long lifetime before session garbage collection), but it was noticed
and caused problems for a developer implementing memcached-based
sessions.
