mctwist

[php code]

<?
session_register("Name");
$_SESSION['Name'] = "Tom";
echo "message";

?

[in browser]

Warning: session_register(): open(/tmp\sess_f2e9eb04907a4a7ee8026e695c1169d9, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in c:\apache\htdocs\session1.php on line 2

Warning: Unknown(): Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in Unknown on line 0

so I opened php.ini and changed "session.save_path to "C:\WINDOWS\Temp" and reloaded the page, but I still get the same error.

Is there anywhere else I have to make changes?

I'm running the web page on a localhosted apache-server
(v. 1.3 I think) in windows XP home.

What is wrong?

Kindley regards

Further information about the problem.
wrote this document:

<?
phpinfo();
?>

and I got a page where all (I think) the php-info was presented.
but according to the page "session.save_path" is still "/tmp"
so the problem is probably not in "php.ini"
I have to change the directory somewhere else aswell.

anybody who knows where and how to do that???

mctwist

okey everone, the problem is fixed.
turned out I hadn't copied php.ini to the apache installation directory

😃

mctwist

so is there any "how to" about session on this site?
or can someone say

howcome...

<?
session_register("Namn");
$SESSION['Namn'] = "Torsten";
echo "$SESSION['Namn']";
?>

returns...

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in c:\apache\htdocs\session1.php on line 4

I'm running out of ideas...

stolzyboy

where is your

session_start();

that has to be your first line when using sessions, that is what keeps the $SESSION array alive, also when using $SESSION, you don't need to use session_register

mctwist

okey I c...

I've changed the code to:

<?
session_start();
$_SESSION[Namn] = Bajs;
?>
<a href="session2.php">Session2</a>

and now a temporary file is created with the information:

Namn|s:4:"Bajs";

the second page has the following code:

<?
$_SESSION[Namn];
?>

but it can't write any information....
how should the code be to do this?

stolzyboy

save a file called session.php with the following in it:

<?
session_start();
$_SESSION['username'] = "stolzyboy"
?>

now save a new file called session_check.php with the following:

<?
session_start();
echo $_SESSION['username']; // should see "stolzyboy" in the browser
?>

mctwist

okey, I think I got the picture, for now anyhow..
I thank u for your expertice
