Ok, I can only open or close this. If you'd like, change it to feedback. I will provide more details soon. I'm very anxious to help squash this problem. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-16 20:32:11] [EMAIL PROTECTED] As for an example script...I don't think I could make it short. However, the script is only a shopping cart. I'm not doing anything out of the ordinary. It is a simple array of strings. I try to store the array as a session. Like I said before, I've never been able to break it myself. However, I do see evidence of it breaking. (ie. the e-mail that is sent to me) I guess it should be possible to write a script that continuously tries to add to cart then checkout and see if it would break that way. I will do so and get back to you. In the meantime, I will change the status of this to feedback. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-16 19:55:52] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The php version I'm using at the moment is PHP Version 4.4.0-dev Any other info can be found here. http://www.t-shirtking.com/temp/phpinfo.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-15 19:32:38] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Can you add _short_ example script here that shows the problem, as I'm using sessions a lot and never have had any problems with them. Albeit I haven't tried to overload them too much either. Maybe you're doing something that isn't really been thought about when the session extension was written? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-15 19:26:09] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please put correct version number in the report.. I assume it's 4.3.0-dev but if it's something else, please change it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-15 16:35:46] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've experienced the same problem, on various platforms. SPARC Solaris 8 with PHP 4.2.2, Intel Linux 2.4 with PHP 4.2.3, and RedHat Alpha Linux 2.4 with PHP 4.2.3. However I'm not using it in the context of a shopping cart, my application is that of a "Checksheet" that we use to mark off Quality Assurance items. The Checksheet is large so I store the form contents in a session. They can move through all kinds of menus and parts of the Checksheet and the work is stored entirely in a session. About 8 people use this Checksheet system throughout the day 7 days a week, about once a day suddenly the Checksheet system will say they aren't logged in, and when they relogin in, their work is gone. I've implemented a quick and dirty save to database feature for long term storage and I've encouraged my users to frequently save. The save merely serializes the Checksheet object that is normally stored in a session, and saves it to a database. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
