Status: Open
Bug Type: Session related
Operating System: XP
PHP Version: 5.2.6
New Comment:
1. I meant to tell you that the linux web server is Apache.
2. And that the function that consumes the concatenated session and
user variable is in one of the include files.
Also, I tried putting the start_session first, still no joy.
I also tried placing the php in an html formated page, ie placing the
basic html/header/body tags around the php code...still no joy.

Description:
------------
Have a php page on a linux web server.
Access it publicly, over the internet, in XP with MS IE, and all is
ok:
You see:
AmazingBob.
If you use plink, or any ssh tunneling software, to establich an SSH
tunnel, and access the page via a redirected port, you only get:
Bob
Somehow the includes or the $_SESSION vars are all empty.
(This may not be a bug if I missed something, but please tell me! like
- should I call session_start prior to includes to get it to work?)
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
header("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");
// set up session vars in includes
include('this_file.php');
include('that_file.php');
// Setup the sessions
session_start();
//get the url param
$urlparam = $_GET['myparam'];
//if the include set up $_SESSION[SsessionVar] to
//be the string "Amazing"
$newvar = $_SESSION[SsessionVar]$urlparam;
echo '$newvar';
//To see good results (AmazingBob) call this with
//http://1.1.1.1/thepage.php?myparam=Bob
//To see problem, call the web page after setting up ssh tunnel as
//http://localhost:8080/thepage.php?myparam=Bob
?>
Expected result:
----------------
AmazingBob
Actual result:
--------------
Bob
