Hi, I'm having this problem with sessions and it goes a bit like this.
The user logs on to the system, checks for username and password in the database. If it is correct, then a session variable is created equal to the username ID. Then are they redirected to the main page, which, like all pages afterwards, is checked to see if the session variable exists. If it doesn't, go to a page telling them to login in again. Else, just let them go anywhere. So the user clicks on a link and see a new page. But if he tries to go anywhere else, even back home (through clicking a link, not a back button) he is told to login again. Now, if he logs in again, everything works perfect. I don't get why it does this. Here is my session stuff in my php.ini I think this might be the problem. Anyone have any idea?
[Session]
; Handler used to store/retrieve data.
session.save_handler = files
; Argument passed to save_handler. In the case of files, this is the path
; where data files are stored.
session.save_path = \tmp
; Whether to use cookies.
session.use_cookies = 1
; Name of the session (used as cookie name).
session.name = PHPSESSID
; Initialize session on request startup.
session.auto_start = 0
; Lifetime in seconds of cookie or, if 0, until browser is restarted.
session.cookie_lifetime = 3600
; The path for which the cookie is valid.
session.cookie_path = /
; The domain for which the cookie is valid.
session.cookie_domain =
; Handler used to serialize data. php is the standard serializer of PHP.
session.serialize_handler = php
; Percentual probability that the 'garbage collection' process is started
; on every session initialization.
session.gc_probability = 50%
; After this number of seconds, stored data will be seen as 'garbage' and
; cleaned up by the garbage collection process.
session.gc_maxlifetime = 3600
; Check HTTP Referer to invalidate externally stored URLs containing ids.
session.referer_check =
; How many bytes to read from the file.
session.entropy_length = 0
; Specified here to create the session id.
session.entropy_file =
;session.entropy_length = 16
;session.entropy_file = /dev/urandom
; Set to {nocache,private,public} to determine HTTP caching aspects.
session.cache_limiter = nocache
; Document expires after n minutes.
session.cache_expire = 180
; use transient sid support if enabled by compiling with --enable-trans-sid.
session.use_trans_sid = 1
url_rewriter.tags = "a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=fakeentry"
