I have the same problem that you, but in linux(Red Hat) and I am sure that he is bug so that in previous versions walked well, script, somebody can give a hand me? it excuses by my ingles Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-11 10:13:43] dcolomvakos at arsystemsweb dot com I experienced this problem with session_destroy() running PHP 4.2.3 on Windows 2000 Server SP3 and IIS 5.0. The issue was indeed FAT vs NTFS, but not just because of the file system, but because I had not given my INET_computername account MODIFY access to the sessiondata directory. This is documented on php.net, however I somehow missed it when I first assigned permissions to the sessiondata directory (I initally put only Read & Execute, List, Write and Read) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-01 04:08:03] corneliu dot galev at cefin dot com I did some testing as Mike did ([31 31 Mar 3:49am] [EMAIL PROTECTED]) and I try to see what is the exact value to be set for gc_maxlifetime to work in my sistem. BTW I use win2000+iis5+php4.2.2. I was very surprised to see that value 37000 worked for a period of time but later the minimum was 38000 and so on. So it's something related to sistem time not files(to be considered garbage) In fact garbage control in windows work like this: at gc_maxlifetime seconds from midnight all other session files are deleted - definitly a bug. Corneliu ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-16 21:32:13] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The fact that the filebased session handler needs a filesystem with atime support has now been documented. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-16 21:03:38] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I really don't see anybody with any interest in writing code to make this work on FAT filesystems. Don't run web servers on crap filesystems. If you do, write your own session handler. Same goes for filesystems where file modification timestamps are ignored. Write your own session handler and manage the garbage collection yourself. We'll need to document this, of course, so marking this as a documentation problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-10 05:10:43] jerome dot billet at hcuge dot ch I've exactly the same problem with Windows 2000, php 4.2.0 and apache 1.3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
