few sessionqustions.. -session.path

[tanita]

Hi,

I could'nt find sufficient results in mailinglist..

1.) How to change the path, where sessions are stored. Webserver runs on Linux. In php.ini I changed 'sesion.save_path = /blabla/sesions '
Dir chmod 777 /blabla/sessions exists. Restart webserver, sessions are still in /tmp..
Why? What should do additionaly?

2.) Is it possible killing sessions (physically), in dir where sessions are stored, with eg. exit-buttons?

3.) Has anyone a sript for killing all sessions in regular intervals?

Thanks,

Tanja

1. if it didn't work, you probably have the wrong php.ini

2. Yes, it's called session_destroy()

3. This is default.

You may ewant to read the manual page about sessions:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php

1. well, it is the right php.ini, phpinfo() shows what is changed.
2. sometimes I'm not sure, if they are killed.
3. when? Can I manipulate this? Please don't say session.cache.expire..

1. any messages in the error logs of ytour webserver?
2. session destroy always kills them
3. session.cache_expire

Read the manual pages. I mean read, not 'have a quick look at'.

are you prepending a script to any/all pages?
Check that there is nothing being prepended - specifically a script with the session_savepath() function in it!

Hi,

thanks for your loving hit 😉

indeed I edited the wrong path.. (session.cookie_path).

I've got it - killing my sessions by exit-button and also the rest that I wanted.

THX,

Tanja
