Session Problem

[AngelGSD]

Hi,

I NEED HELP URGENTLY. My session script was running well under PHP Ver 4.2.2 and now failed to register any session variable under PHP Ver 4.3.1.

Please advise. Thanks in advance.

Hi, first thing to do is check your php.ini, and see what's changed. You did make a backup before you upgraded, didn't you? 😉 Also, usually the main problem with sessions are the register_globals incompatibilities. Check to see if your code uses the $_SESSION['var'] = "value"; method, or the session_register("var"); $var = "value"; method. If it uses the first, you need register globals OFF, if it uses the second, you need register globals ON. I would suggest not turning register globals on, but instead recoding to make it more secure 🙂

Hope that helps,
Matt
