ID: 32886 User updated by: luis at infomed dot sld dot cu Reported By: luis at infomed dot sld dot cu -Status: Bogus +Status: Open Bug Type: Session related Operating System: * PHP Version: 5.0.4 New Comment:
Please, maybe, I dont explain the problem very well, I try to overwrite the session array but dont work, look at the page2: $buffer['varA'] = $_SESSION['varA']; $_SESSION = array();//here I clear the session,become empty $_SESSION = $buffer;//assign a new array,cause array $buffer print_r($_SESSION); //on screen the right result, //but on the session file is wrong. So, I want to overwrite the session variable with a new array but php dont do it, then, the onscreen result between page2 and page3 are different and it is not correct because in both pages I have the same statement: print_r($_SESSION); with different results. Please, if you can, read carefully my tests. Best regards, Luis Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-29 09:08:10] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Not a bug. If you overwrite the $_SESSION array by assigning a new array to it, you remove it's magic properties of being the array with session variables. This is expected - so don't do it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-29 08:45:16] luis at infomed dot sld dot cu Description: ------------ php5.0.4 dont store the correct values after modified the $_SESSION variable, the idea is to clear the session and do persist only a few values. I use Apache 1.3.33. With php5.0.2 everything is fine the problem appear with php5.0.4, I am not try with php5.0.3 Reproduce code: --------------- page1.php----------------------------------------- <?php session_start(); $_SESSION['varA'] = 'aaa'; $_SESSION['varB'] = 'bbb'; ?> page2.php----------------------------------------- <?php session_start(); $buffer['varA'] = $_SESSION['varA']; $_SESSION = array(); $_SESSION = $buffer; print_r($_SESSION); ?> page2b.php----------------------------------------- <?php session_start(); $_SESSION = array(); $_SESSION['varA'] = 'aaa'; print_r($_SESSION); ?> page3.php----------------------------------------- <?php session_start(); print_r($_SESSION); ?> Expected result: ---------------- I would expect the same behavior with: page1.php->page2.php->page3.php and with: page1.php->page2b.php->page3.php but is not. Actual result: -------------- When I do page1.php->page2.php on the screen I obtain the correct values: Array ( [varA] => aaa ) but on the session file in disc is wrong, because the session file have: varA|s:3:"aaa";varB|s:3:"bbb"; and in page3.php on the screen I have: Array ( [varA] => aaa [varB] => bbb ), is wrong. But, if I do page1.php->page2b.php->page3.php everything is fine. Thank you for your work in PHP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32886&edit=1
