From: dmj28 at student dot canterbury dot ac dot nz Operating system: FreeBSD 4.5 PHP version: 4.2.3 PHP Bug Type: Output Control Bug description: Output occasionally has replaced characters
The problem is that sessions expire, before they should, apparently randomly. This did not seem to happen under 4.2. The following information may be useful: Two symptoms: - Php is using the query string to maintain sessions *ALOT* when cookies would normally be used? - Sessions occasionally expire well before they should. - A mail() sends an email with some characters replaced? Is it possible that some characters of output are being replaced, and this is causing session id's to be changed, expiring sessions?
