I am working on a PII 350 dev machine. php 4.3.4/apache 2.0.48 same problem used PEAR::Auth module and discoverd this bug. I can't seem to get rid of it. Tried all of the solutions presented on this site save from installing windows on my machine. I'm gonna try to recreate this bug on my laptop at work (winxp). See what happens there.

Not a PHP expert, so this may be obvious. Cheers ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-27 21:01:38] alexbodn at 012 dot net dot il it's me again. i must mention that the problem occured to me on the index.php page, where i was calling session_id() after session_start(). (here is the place the id should be created for the first time). it didn't appear on pages that call session_id($_GET[$_SESSION[session_name()]]) before session_start(). thanks again, alex ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-27 20:40:41] alexbodn at 012 dot net dot il hello palls, i hope my workaround might help. i have experienced the same failure on a debian woody dev server with no load running a pentium 100 mhz with php 4.1.2. i had the problem on a page which was calling session_id() with no parameters. after reading this list, i have changed the first call to session_id() to: session_id(session_id("a")) and the problem dissapeared. i must mention that after the first time i found the problem, it didn't stop until this workaround. although i didn't examine php source, it might be that the solution for this case would be checking the number of parameters to session_id(). thank you very much for your work and contributions. alex ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
