Dear all,
since upgrading to php5 I've a problem with session handling. In php4
a user initiated a session, the session id gets afterwards handed over
to a payment provider. When the payment provider calls a script with
the session id added to the query string, all session data gets loaded
and everything works fine. When I switch to php5 all session data gets
lost and the session file has zero length afterwards. Attached is a
short script to verify the behaviour:
<?php
session_name('XTCtest');
if (isset($_GET['sid'])) $sessid = session_id($_GET['sid']);
session_start();
if (isset($_GET['set']))
$_SESSION['customer_id']=$_GET['set'];
echo "<html><head><title>test</title></head><body>your customer id is
" .$_SESSION['customer_id']." and session id is
".session_id()."<body></html>";
?>
calling the script from machine 1 with query string "?set=4711"
returns the correct value.
calling the script again from machine 1 without a query string and
cookies enabled works as expected (returns 4711).
calling the script from machine 2 with query string "?
XTCtest=<sessionid>" or "?sid=<sessionid>" works perfectly on php4 and
return 4711. On php5 session data is lost and nothing is returned.
Does anybody have a clue what I miss or have to change for php5?
regards,
Juergen
