Re: [PHP] session/login issue
Check the before/after php.ini settings. My first guess is they finally turned register_globals OFF and the Plesk code is relying on register_globals. Upgrade, fix, or abandon Plesk if that's the case. My second guess is they changed the session.auto_start or completely messed up the session GC or time limit settings in php.ini Actually, if it broke yesterday... The DST date/time change may also mean that the OS idea of now and the PHP idea of now may be out of whack, or, more likely, their server clock is so screwed up that sessions are expired as soon as they are issued. Can we just abandon this stupid DST thing already? Who actually *LIKES* it? If you've got a problem with the amount of daylight you are getting, just get up earlier or later or whatever, and leave the damn clocks alone!

Re: [PHP] Session Login and Redirect Problem
Issue resolved... For some reason if the $request_uri was empty, the redirect failed
because it was going to itself. I enclosed the redirect around an if statement
checking the request_uri variable. BTW, $request_uri is a hidden form variable that
captures the actual $REQUEST_URI global variable when the login form appears. This
allows me to redirect the user to the requested page when they log in. Works like a
charm!!!
Sometimes in explaining the problem, I see the solution.

Subject: [PHP] Session Login and Redirect Problem
I am using Sessions with mod PHP4.0.6 with trans-sid set on. Everything works fine.
However, after loggin in, I want to automatically redirect the user to a specific
page if they came from an external site or were given a link via emal. I realize
that a session variable is not actually stored until the end of the script. So I used
the session_write_close() function to save the session before redirecting using the
header() function. It does not work. The session variable fail to be available after
redirection.
Any ideas?
?php
if (!session_is_registered(valid_user) $session_login==proc){
if ($userid $password) {
// if the user has just tried to log in
$query = select * from auth_users
.where auth_username='$userid'
. and auth_password='$password' and active='Y';
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(MySQL Login Error: .
mysql_error() );
if (mysql_num_rows($result) 0 ) {
// if they are in the database register the user id
$valid_user = $userid;
$valid_group=mysql_result($result,0,auth_group);
$valid_perms=mysql_result($result,0,auth_perms);
$valid_auth_id=mysql_result($result,0,auth_id);
session_register(valid_user);
session_register(valid_group);
session_register(valid_perms);
session_register(valid_auth_id);
/* Redirect browser */
session_write_close();
header(Location: http://.$SERVER_NAME.$request_uri);
exit; // exit script
} else {
$invalid_login= Invalid login: Could not log you in...
!--ERROR: $dbname P $query--;
}
}
}
?
