PHP Session Id changes between pages
- by willl69
Hi All,
I have a problem where i am losing the PHP session between 2 pages.
The session_start() is included in a file called session-inc.php into every page requiring a session to be set. This works for all pages on the site except one particular page, member-profile.php. When this page is visited a new session with a different id (same session name) is set and used instead.
A few more details:
Session name is set manually
All pages are on the same server under the same domain name
If i put an additional session_start() above the include('session-inc.php') in the member-profile.php file, the session is carried over correctly
I have tried setting the session_cookie_domain and session.session_name in the .htaccess, this worked for this domain but it stopped the session being passed over to out payment domain
We are running apache 2.2.6 with php 5.2.5
Putting the session_start() above the include('session-inc.php') in the member-profile.php file is the quick and dirty fix for this problem, but i am wondering if anybody know why this would be happening.
Cheers
Will
