I have a strange problem with sessions in PHP 5. I have a simple script that
prints a random number both as a string and a picture on the screen. When I
run the script for the first time, it works perfectly. However, when I
refresh the page, new updated random number does not propagate to the image
displayer script through sessions. The image displayer script continues
showing the old number instead of the new random number. I checked the
script on PHP 4.4.2 on Linux with Apache, and the script worked without any
problems. However, when I tried it on my computer using PHP 5.1.2 on Windows
with Apache 2, I got this problem. I used the same computer with IE6 for
browsing in both cases.
I did some debugging and saw that the problem is solved when I delete the
ini_set('session.use_cookies',false); line. However, I need this line
because I do not want to use cookies.
These are the scripts:
The main script printing the numbers. When you run the script, the two
numbers written as text and image must be the same. When you first run the
script, they are the same. However, when you refresh the page, image still
shows the old number when PHP 5 is used.
Code:
<?php
ini_set('session.use_cookies',false);
session_start();
$IMGVER_TS = (rand()%10);
$_SESSION["IMGVER_RT"] = $IMGVER_TS;
?>
<p align="center"> <?php echo $IMGVER_TS ?> <img src="deneimg.php?<?php echo
SID ?>"> </p>
This is the script for showing the image. The name of the script file is
deneimg.php
Code:
<?php
session_start();
$IMGVER_IMAGE = imagecreate(50,20);
$IMGVER_COLOR_BLACK = imagecolorallocate ($IMGVER_IMAGE, 110,110, 110);
$IMGVER_COLOR_WHITE = imagecolorallocate ($IMGVER_IMAGE, 205, 205, 205);
imagefill($IMGVER_IMAGE, 0, 0, $IMGVER_COLOR_BLACK);
$IMGVER_RanText = $_SESSION["IMGVER_RT"];
imagechar($IMGVER_IMAGE, 3, 20, 0, $IMGVER_RanText ,$IMGVER_COLOR_WHITE);
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
imagejpeg($IMGVER_IMAGE);
?>
Could you please check it?
I checked the temp directory for sessions. Session files are created
properly, so it is not the source of the problem.
Also, I think it is not a cache problem. I did refresh by pressing ctrl + f5
and it didn't solve the problem. Strange thing is that the same code is
working on when server is PHP 4.4.2 on Linux with Apache, but not working
when server is PHP 5.1.2 on Windows XP with Apache 2.0.55 connected to PHP
via ISAPI.
Session id's are being passed around the URL. Sessions are working when I
first load the page. When I do refresh, a new session id is injected to the
image displayer script, but the image displayer script is still showing the
data of previous session.
I tried the code by setting session.use_trans_sid to both on and off, but it
didn't solve the problem. The code is working perfectly fine on a server is
PHP 4.4.2 that has session.use_trans_sid set to off.
