So, there are yet more problems with the session functions. :) Are you using 4.1.1 or 4.0.6?

I've imagine that he had the same problem that I have had before.. :) I'm really returning a '"" in my read function when there is no data too... because of this I don't had the problem related by Sean...

PHP 4.0.6 wouldn't write out sessions when register_globals was set to off when you were using "return false". PHP 4.1.0 crashes with signal 11 after a bit when using "return false". I've filed a couple of bug reports with the request that this be fixed. I believe a patch is either being worked on or already submitted, but I'm not positive. Sean's problem is that he's using "return false" in his session read function. The session read function should return a blank value ('') and not false when there's no data. This was never clear in the documentation (and complaint I made) but is quite true. Once switching over to using ('') instead of (false), I no longer had problems.

I had the same problem... this can be resolved using the function "session_write_close()" at the end of each script you use sessions. It will force PHP to call the write and close function. In some combinations of PHP version, Apache and OS, this problem doesn't happens, but as you, I had this problem too.. :) Put this function in yours PHP scripts and see if now them will work. Here is an exemple of a test script: <?php error_reporting( E_ALL ); ini_set("session.save_handler","user"); include( "./mysession.php" ); ----> where is my session functions declareted to use database... session_start(); ?> <html> <head> <title>MySQL Session Management: Second Page</title> </head> <body> <?php print( "SESSION User: $aUser<br>" ); print( "SESSION Account: $aAccount<br>" ); $aUser = "Katie"; $aAccount = "2026"; print( "CHANGED User: $aUser<br>" ); print( "CHANGED Account: $aAccount<br>" ); session_write_close(); ?> </body> </html> Cheers, _________________________________ Ricardo J.

I am still unable to get my own session handler to work. My session handler's write never gets called; only my session_open and session_read get called....the default file session handler still works, if I change save_handler back to file instead of user. As for the feature request, I guess I could - is there a mechanism to do this outlined somewhere? > -----Original Message----- > From: Sean LeBlanc [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, January 01, 2002 8:32 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [PHP] Session troubles > > > On 12-31 09:23, Jaime Bozza wrote: > > Sean, > > From your php error_log, it's saying the following: > > Failed to write session data (user) > > > > which sounds like it's having problems writing to the user-defined > > session handler.
