AHA!

I found the problem:

session_expiration is an unsigned int(11) field type and so
session_expiration > now()
always results in no match, even when it should be in the on_session_read() function.
...now i need to make sure, that the now() gets the same value type, right?
...any ideas?


Thanks,
Duncan

Hi,

i just tried the session_set_save_handler script from Sterling Hughes
"PHP Cookbook", which allows to save the session in a MySQL database.

However, i ran into a problem:
The script works just fine and also saves the session in the database,
but it doesn't update the value of the saved data.
I browsed google for additional examples, but only to find out, that the
exact same problem appeared.
So, my guess is, that my script has some kind of logical error, but i am
unable to spot it.
Any help is more than welcome (regarding my starting headache ;) )

Here is the script:

If the session_set_save_handler function is commented (as seen below),
then the script starts the session and continues to display the
increasing $counter variable with every page reload.
However, once you uncomment the session_set_save_handler function, the
session gets saved in the MySQL database, but the counter variable won't
increase and always stays at "1". (as i said, i tried this with several
scripts already, but all resulted in the same problem)

So, i think the problem is either in the on_session_write() part, where
the value doesn't increase, or -as already pointed out- i am having a
logical error with the $counter variable.
...just to clarify: $counter++; also means that it should be increased
in the MySQL database, right? Or would i have to do s.th. else to update
the session values in the MySQL database?

The script:

<?
function on_session_start($save_path, $session_name)
{
    // nothing
}

function on_session_end()
{
// nothing
}


function on_session_read($key)
{
    $db = mysql_connect(DB_HOST,DB_USER,DB_PASS);
    mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE);
    if ($db)
    {
        $query = mysql_query('SELECT session_data FROM sessions WHERE
session_id="'.$key.'" AND session_expiration > now()');
        $row = mysql_fetch_row($query);
    }
    return $row[0];
    mysql_close();
}

function on_session_write($key, $val)
{
$val = addslashes($val);
$db = mysql_connect(DB_HOST,DB_USER,DB_PASS);
mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE);
if ($db)
{
$query = mysql_query('INSERT INTO sessions VALUES("'.$key.'",
"'.$val.'", now() + 3600)');
if (!$query)
$queryb = mysql_query('UPDATE sessions SET session_data="'.$val.'",
session_expiration=now()+3600 WHERE session_id="'.$key.'"');
if (!$queryb)
die(sprintf("$val - $key"));
}
mysql_close();
}


function on_session_destroy($key)
{
    $db = mysql_connect(DB_HOST,DB_USER,DB_PASS);
    mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE);
    if ($db)
    {
        mysql_query('DELETE FROM sessions WHERE session_id="'.$key.'"');
    }
    mysql_close();
}

function on_session_gc($max_lifetime)
{
$db = mysql_connect(DB_HOST,DB_USER,DB_PASS);
mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE);
if ($db)
{
mysql_query('DELETE FROM sessions WHERE session_expiration < now()');
}
mysql_close();
}
