This has been a very interesting discussion, as I have had the same problem, but never thought much about the fact that I could do anything about it. As to session save path, when I run phpinfo (at my remote Linux server) it tells me that it is set to no value. This means it would default to /tmp. Where is this tmp directory? I have looked at the tmp directory that is one level above my site's www directory (outside of the web space), but I do not see any session data there. That's why I am asking if it is a system wide directory, or is it the one in my home directory. If I set the path myself, what would be a good location? (I assume it should be outside the web space). Should I make up some random folder name (one time) and story my session data within that directory, within my own home directory?

Since I had backed everything up, I put it all back the way it was, uninstalled xampp, and to my surprise, I now have https and ftps streams registered in my previous installation. I'm glad I can finally access secure sites from my Php scripts, but I have no idea what is that I managed to change to allow it. (I have a guess. With things mixed up a bit I started getting an error message I'd never seen before when starting Apache (with Php as a module). A search on Google for the error message ... Function registration failed - duplicate name I got the advice to NOT register openssl in php.ini, if it was already statically linked in the binary. H. This may have been my problem earlier, but for some reason I was not seeing any error messages.) Oh well. At least it's Apache 2.0.55 OpenSSL/0.9.8a and Php 4.4.1, so I shouldn't need to upgrade any time soon (other than to eventually try out Php 5). -- * Chuck Anderson • Boulder, CO http://www.CycleTourist.com Integrity is obvious.

If you need to use header() you should write any earlier output to a variable and only output it to the browser after any header() function use. - Ben Most likely that is exactly what's happening. To be even more clear - the solution is to use the header function before any HTML (before *any* output). I learned this when I had an include file that was all Php causing this problem. The end of the included file had a carriage return after the closing tag ?. That was a nasty one to locate. Now I always make sure there is no white space after the closing tag in files I might include somewhere else. -- * Chuck Anderson • Boulder, CO http://www.CycleTourist.com Integrity is obvious.

[PHP] Can't use secure file wrappers - Windows
[I've had this posted in the php.windows group for a few days, but I got no replies there.] I have been plugging away at this for some time now and I can not figure out how to get https and ftps as registered streams in my Windows installation of Php (4.4.0). My direct need is to use fopen on secure URLs - https. (I've installed openssl - enabled the Php openssl extension - and verified that my copy of Php was compiled with the openssl module.) The latest thing I have read says that I need a special copy of php4ts.dll in order to enable secure streams (https, ftps) in Php on Windows (XP, in my case). The posts I read point to copies of php4ts.dll for Php 4.3.4. I am running Php 4.4.0. Where can I find a copy of php4ts.dll for Php4.4.0 that enables secure streams? (And is that really the solution in Php 4.4.0?) Thanks in Advance -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I may give that a try, but I already have two full apache servers loaded on my PC. What I can't figure out is why these secure streams are not registered. I seem to have done everything needed. If I get some free time this week, I may install Xampp - see what happens.
