* status: closed => reopened * resolution: needmoreinfo => Comment: Sorry for the late reply, yes i checked that the code is php. I believe the problem has something to do with the var sessionTime in the session class. The session component sets it because in the __construct($base = null, $start = true) its set to true where as the session helper has start set to false so the var sessionTime is not set. So it seems that the session helper is not using our defined session expiration time but php's standard session expiration? im not really sure. Also I noticed another wierd behaviour. I have a requestAction that basically calls a page that gets the logged in users data if he is logged in otherwise sends back false so that i can show a login form. When i use the requestAction in my view before calling (i have it nocache block and the php code is in cached views in tmp): {{{ <?php $this->requestAction('loginbox'); if($session->check('Auth.User')){ echo 'Logged In'; }else{ echo 'not logged in'; { ?> }}} then it works fine and shows me that im not logged in when im not and then the following session helper works correctly also. But if i have the requestAction after the session helper being used then they both dont work. So i guess that probably one instance of the session object is created or something and if the session helper creates it first its got the wrong expiration time and then even the session component will get it wrong?? Well i hope this info helps. I fixed my app by making sure that the loginbox code is first (had to float right the divs since it was supposed to be on the right) but on other circumstances i might not want to have to use requestAction if not necessary because it slows down the app. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.cakephp.org/ticket/6406#comment:3> CakePHP : The Rapid Development Framework for PHP <https://trac.cakephp.org/> Cake is a rapid development framework for PHP which uses commonly known design patterns like ActiveRecord, Association Data Mapping, Front Controller and MVC.
