Programming :: PHP Sessions Variables Are Not Persistent
Jan 10, 2010
I just created a website in PHP and tested on my own webserver. All of my session variables worked great. Today I uploaded it to my commercial server host and it does not remember the session vars from one page to the next. Here is the session section of phpinfo().
Code:
session
Session Support enabled
Registered save handlers files user sqlite
Registered serializer handlers php php_binary wddx
DirectiveLocal ValueMaster Value
session.auto_startOffOff
session.bug_compat_42OnOn
session.bug_compat_warnOnOn
session.cache_expire180180
session.cache_limiternocachenocache
session.cookie_domainno valueno value
session.cookie_httponlyOffOff
session.cookie_lifetime00
session.cookie_path//
session.cookie_secureOffOff
session.entropy_fileno valueno value
session.entropy_length00
session.gc_divisor100100
session.gc_maxlifetime14401440
session.gc_probability11
session.hash_bits_per_character44
session.hash_function00
session.namePHPSESSIDPHPSESSID
session.referer_checkno valueno value
session.save_handlerfilesfiles
session.save_path/tmp/tmp
session.serialize_handlerphpphp
session.use_cookiesOnOn
session.use_only_cookiesOffOff
session.use_trans_sid00
You can see that session.save_path is set to /tmp, which is the default on the shared server. /tmp does exist in my document root directory.
I can define all variables in tcl programming in a file for instance var.cfgand source the same file in my tcl script such assource var.cfgIs this possible in perl too?
I implemented a SSL client using openssl on Linux and it's working fine i am getting response from server...
But my problem is I have a separate thread for each request comes form front end and i have to do SSL communication in each thread, for this i have to create a separate SSL Context for each thread and this is taking too much time hence my transaction is getting delayed
My question is can we implement Persistent SSL connection where i will do SSL Handshake only at the time of application startup and use that connection in all the threads....
My co-worker and I are working on this robotics project where robots are controlled over the web. I don't want to go into all the details, but basically the users visit a page where they have access to a PHP-based interface that allows them to send commands to robots in our tech lab (via an intermediate server). Our web server is running Apache.
Anyway, now we need to implement session control, with user-names and passwords so that only certain people can have access to the interface at a certain time, with access to only certain robots, et cetera. We were hoping there was some kind of pre-fab FOSS solution for handling both the session control and maintaining the MySQL user/password database.
My co-worker knows a little PHP, and I know a little MySQL, but we are both noobs enough that we would prefer to do as little of this from scratch as is possible. We don't have a lot of time, and I know it is easy for inexperienced MySQL programmers to introduce security vulnerabilities.
I have several users on handhelds and they like to let their sessions time out. Their zombie processes then cause record locks.I've come up with calls for killing the pids for any prior sessions started by a given user. This procedure would be executed in the .bash_profile.
I look after a server which accepts automatic overnight PASV FTP uploads from remote clients. When the uploads are complete, my Bash script copies the files to another location. The problem is, my script needs to be a bit smarter when it comes to detecting active FTP sessions.
I was using:
Code:
netstat -n | grep ":21 " | grep ESTABLISHED
to test if there were active sessions, but came unstuck when a local user left an unrelated FTP session active. The result - my script hung around all night thinking there was an active upload from a remote client. My server is behind a firewall, so remote clients all show an internal (NAT) address,so I can't differentiate by source IP address.I can't install LSOF or FUSER for security reasons. Is there a way I can test for active FTP sessions from specific users? I am running Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.2 (Tikanga).
I know PHP auto removes stale sessions on it's own, but that doesn't remove them from the MYSQL table. So I was gonna make a cron script that ran once every hour that removed any MYSQL shopping cart item from the table if the original session_id that created it does not exist anymore.
From my understanding a session_id is an "actual" file located somewhere on the harddisk (is it not? correct me if I'm wrong), so I was going to do a simple check for each item in the shopping cart to check for it's original session file, if it didn't exist on the harddisk, then simply remove it from the mysql table.
I'm running into a problem when I try to set a variable to an awk output in c-shell. Right now my command is Code: set STR_MSG_TYPE = `awk -F{ '/msg_type/ {print $2}' <filename> | tr -d }'/''*' ` I then run echo to see what the output is and it returns blank, however, when I run the same awk command from the command line, I get an actual output of "MT-715". Am I setting my variable incorrectly? I do something similar using the date command to set a STR_DATE variable earlier in the code and it works fine and I use the same syntax.
i'm practicing in very basic c programs using the gcc compiler.I found that when i create two variables let's say
Code:
int a,b and Code: a=15; b=3; a=b; b--;
then a equals 2.I thought that this isn't normal in C isn't it?I haven't had the time to read the gcc documentation yet...so i think it has something to do with my compiler's default settings.I use the
Code: gcc filename.c -o filename command to compile
I have a C header file which have arrays of predefined(known) structure type. But i dont have names of arrays and their size. when i include that file and compile my application, i want to know the names and sizesof those arrays.
purpose of application is to get the content of those arrays and to explain it in descriptive words instead of hex numbers.ofcourse this can be done by file pointers and reading also with out header file inclusion, but as i am working in C, once compiled, those variables are in my address space in i include header file.
I am pretty new to PHP so excuse my dumbness. I've searched this up in quite a few places and cant find anything : Basically, I've made an array, within it are 3 more arrays. Their are two values in each array, 'Name' and 'Age'. Basically I am using a While statement to try and cycle through the 'age' value of my array and state whether or not the person is eligible. (I am actually just learning so I'm doing this to just test myself).
Here was an attempt to try and create a reference to age, I tried it many different ways while($age < 10) { echo ('$name, is eligible') ; } ?>
Okay, so I tried to do this through two ways, one way I tried to create a reference to age, then evaluate it, without that line of code their would be no reference, which way is correct, why wont it work? I am using Xammp, so when I launch local host I get an undefined variable error. What To Do?
My php knowledge is very poor (only worked with strings so far), and I am faced which a task that is a real challenge for me: I have a variable, that contains data of different type, in this order: byte, byte, string, string, string, string, short, byte, byte, byte, byte, byte, byte, byte, string.
Strings are of variable length. How could this data be parsed into variables of the right type, and then all converted to strings? What are the functions to use? Strings are unicode ones, and they are delimited by "
Im a fresher in PHP.Actually i wanted to know that whether there will be time delay while using session variables in PHP.By using some 10-20 session variables in my code will it affect the speed of the loading of the page.If so then can u suuggest any other method to pass the varaibles which will not slow down the speed?
I have sles 10 . A user has a default shell of tcsh. I want to run a script which has to use ksh . In that script only some variables are exported, which will be used in subsequent scripts which are called inside it.
But the variables are not exported. I am unable to find whether its a conflict of shell or what ?? I tried with debug mode, it only displays the command but not execute anyone ..
I have a file that contains 5 fields and anothen one with two I want to take the value from user and search file1 and if the value exists then write in file2 to the $2 to the line that $1=value
What's the best way to include variables in a string using C,i.e if i want to do the following query in C, how would i do that.How do i build the string variable up in C?
I'm writing something which takes user input (which may or may not contain spaces...) and then runs a command on a remote system via ssh. However the remote command does not work. I can't print the exact code so I'll just provide an equivelenat problem. This needs to work with filenames which do and do not contain spaces.
I'm trying to write a bash script and I'm having trouble with it.I have a list of DNS entires from a file called zoneExport.txt.Than I want to parse a log file to see if that DNS entry has been queried for. So I'm running a grep command and trying to save it into a variable. What I'm looking for is a variable ($varGrepQ) that has the number of matches for the grep query. I will then run this through an if statement and do some things from there..
But my problem right now is with this grep query. It keeps outputting '0' even when I know there are records in that file and when I run the same query on the command line I get the actual count. My thought is that the $record variable is not passing right.
If I read in variables entered by the user, how can I check to make sure the correct number of variables were entered? For example, after reading in a data file and making it into an array, I have:echo "To check the data, enter the first element number, last element number and step size as x y z:"read x y z.It then goes on to start a loop, but what I would like now (before the loop) is a check to see if three variables have been entered, before the rest of the script continues.
I've tried specifying the variables as $1, $2 and $3, but if I echo $#, the value comes out as zero, so it's obviously not working.
I'm playing around with some shell scripting and I've got a directory call CS005 and I'm trying to write a script to I can locate to the directory really quick and easy.
export CS005DIR=/home/stud/0/043234/CS005
Now I get this error
CS005DIR=/home/stud/0/043234/CS005 No such file or directory.
This is because I've got numerical values within my variable.
Is there a way to allow numbers for variable names?
Somehow I'm not really managing this thing, which would d be a nice way to useariables.What I am doing is setting up compound variable in ksh. What I have is a "config" file, which has fields delimited by a semicolon
Code: cat ${CONFIGFILE} | grep -v "^#" | grep -v "^$" | while read line do
In C, how can I declare multiple variables at once where the number that needs to be declared is unknown to the programmer.For example, a program that needs to declare some number of integers, but the user will tell the program how many integers to declare. Such as: x1 x2 x3 x4 x5 . . . Where the programmer doesn't know how many need to be declare you setup theinitialization?
We have a STM32F103ZET6 microcontroller.It has an ARM cortex-M3 core.We use keil as compiler.We have both an external and internal SRAM.Now I want to declare variables in either of the RAM as I wish.For example some time critical section variables in internal and others in external.How to do this.?
