Re: [PHP] Sessions Issue
Yeah, I thought about that. But to be honest, I don't know how to recompile with builds from the CD/rpms. This is the first time I've ever done it this way. So if I get the latest RPM and install it it should activate session right? And then I just need to restart apache2 and I should be good?

Re: [PHP] Sessions Issue
Again, this won't affect anything since I installed from the CD's and I've always noticed that things installed via CD/rpm have different install paths then source. I'm worried it will look in the wrong spot for Apache...but that could be a un-needed worry.

Re: [PHP] Sessions Issue
phpinfo() says that sessions are disabled. So, between that and the fact I get the undefined function errors when I try to use session_start() or other session commands, I'm under the strong impression that sessions are disabled. So this leads me back to my original questions, can I activate sessions without recompiling? And if I can't, how do I recompile since I used the SuSE cd's and YasT?

Perhaps SuSE has a separate php-sessions package? It would be a bit crazy to do it that way, but it is possible to build the session extension as a standalone extension. -Rasmus -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
