Hello Joost.
Here's the code from session.php of the gallery (1.4.4-1):
/* emulate register_globals for sessions */
if (!$gallery->register_globals) {
if (is_array($HTTP_SESSION_VARS) && !empty($HTTP_SESSION_VARS)) {
foreach($HTTP_SESSION_VARS as $key => $value) {
$$key =& $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$key];
}
} /* <======== LINE 60 */
elseif (is_array($_SESSION) && !empty($_SESSION)) {
foreach($_SESSION as $key => $value) {
$$key =& $_SESSION[$key];
}
}
}
The funny thing is that gallery worked well until this problem. I thought
that something changed in the gallery as well, so I tried the version from
testing (which is 1.4.3-pl2-1 I believe), and that one had problems.
I thing that somehow the sessions got mangled up, it might even be in the
apache for all I know. I tried downgrading it as well, but no dice.
I am going to play a little bit more with some php settings, turn on the
debug and so forth, and see what happens.
