[PHP] Re: Sessions not working.
If your on IIS, you need to set the session.save_path option in php.ini file. Then make sure that IIS can actually write to the directory. Jeff McKeon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Pulling my hair out here. I've got an IIS5 webserver running a php website just fine. I created another web for a dev version of the first website. Installed PHP ect... When I load up the old websites files on the new site sessions won't work on the new site. For some reason on the new site's phpinfo.php page, there is no HTTP_COOKIE variable set under the environmental section.

[PHP] RE: Sessions not working between documents (was: Sessions and switching between php and htm documents)
When you check your info page, do sessions automatically start? If not, make
sure you do a session_start(); in there somewhere before you start checking
things.
Not sure why (lost in the annuls of time) but I always manually start/stop
my sessions.

Subject: RE: [PHP] Sessions and switching between php and htm documents
tested the $HTTP_SESSION_VARS prior to sending, set just fine.
changed the next page to php and tested for the session var... nothing.
[in login.php]
?
session_start();
# database check in here
if(match){
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[UserID_session]=$txtUserID; #from form
field for user
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[UserNum_session]=$databaseresult; # from
database result for user number
header(Location: successlogin.php); # or .htm - changed this
to test if var was being passed
exit;
}else{
header(Location: wrongpassword.htm);
exit;
}
?
[in successlogin.php]
?
echo $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[SellerID_session];
?
if I check session_id() - it is the same in both pages. Variables
just aren't getting stored/retrieved.
ideas?
as an aside, how do you destroy/start a new session with new session
id? or do you just destroy the variables then use the same session id
for the new session?
Dave
Did you test and make sure the variable is set?
login.php
session_start();
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[username]=$formUserName;
echo $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[username]
header(Location: displaypage.htm);
Also, for grins ang giggles, make the middle page in the chain a HP, start
the session and test for the variable. If it does not work then the problem
is not the middle page being html.
Subject: [PHP] Sessions and switching between php and htm documents
login.htm
form submits information
login.php
session_start();
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[username]=$formUserName;
header(Location: displaypage.htm);
displaypage.htm
show some static stuff
links to formpage.htm
formpage.htm
form submits information to form.php
form.php
session_start();
echo $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[username]; - has no value
