Operating system: Red Hat 7.0
PHP Version: 4.0.5
Description: to many sessions are generated when using set_session_save_handler with
mysql
I found what the problem was. When there is a broken image on the page, the 404-page
was loaded. On that page sessions were loaded again, causing the error.

Using a session_handler like this one:
http://gateway.digitaria.com/~chris/php/mysql_session_handler/mysql_session_handler.phps
Using a mySQL-database.
Have the following configure './configure' '--with-mysql'
'--with-apache=../apache_1.3.20'
'--enable-track-vars' '--enable-trans-sid' '--enable-ftp' '-disable-debug'
The problem: I have noticed that if you use set_session_save_handler with mysql and
you
dont accept cookies and there is a broken image on the page, PHP generates to many
sessions:
This is an example code that generates this error (named test.php3):
?php
mysql_connect (localhost, user, pass);
include(the session file like the one linked above);
session_start();
?
img src=fdsafdsaf.jpg
?php
// count the number of sessions stored in the database
$numsessions = mysql_num_rows(mysql_query(select * from sessions));
echo $ numsessions;
?
br
a href=test.php3test/a
Notice how the number of sessions are added, but you still have your same session id.
What
happens is that PHP generates a number of session ids, that are never used. This
problem
doesnt occur if you have cookies enabled, or dont uses set_session_save_handler.
I have also noticed that the image doesn't need to be broken, It can also be a gif and
only contain a transparent colour. This generates the same error.
