Session is not working

piyushpatelia · 02-23-2021, 02:31 AM

Hi,

While i am trying to fetch session in next page, i couldn't get it.

Here is the code:

Page 1:
ob_start();session_start();
$_SESSION['favcolor'] = 'green';
$_SESSION['animal'] = 'cat';
$_SESSION['time'] = time();
echo '<br /><a href="bbb.php?' . SID . '">page 2</a>';

Page 2:
ob_start();session_start();
echo $_SESSION['favcolor']; // green
echo $_SESSION['animal']; // cat

it's display null value. also two session files generated in session.path folder.

<?php
session_start();

session_start should be the first line (and by its self) in a php file

What linux distribution/version are you running?
Have you installed php?

Here is one complete example for code you are trying to run.

Page1.php

Code:

 <?php
// Start the session
session_start();
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<?php
// Set session variables
$_SESSION["favcolor"] = "green";
$_SESSION["favanimal"] = "cat";
echo "Session variables are set.";
?>
<br> <a href="page2.php">page 2</a>
</body>
</html>

Page2.php

Code:

 <?php
session_start();
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<?php
// Echo session variables that were set on previous page
echo "Favorite color is " . $_SESSION["favcolor"] . ".<br>";
echo "Favorite animal is " . $_SESSION["favanimal"] . ".";
?>

</body>
</html>

we have commented Header edit Set-Cookie ^(.*)$ $1;HttpOnly;Secure code in security.conf file and it's working fine
