CI4 - session not persisting - happyape - 10-18-2018
I just uploaded a test site on an ubuntu server and it seems that session data is not being persistent.
e.g. mydomain/home/test/?ds=set&key=name&val=xyz would print the $ss with the value of key and val. However, I back to mydomain /home/test without ds=set querystring - it should print the session value set in the previous request but its empty.
Code:
$ds = $this->request->getGet('ds');
$key = $this->request->getGet('key');
$val = $this->request->getGet('val');
if($ds == 'set') {
$data[$key] = $val;
session()->set($data);
}
$ss = session()->get();
print_r($ss);I cleared all files from writable/session folder and if I refresh site page it creates a session file in there. I also noticed that every page refresh creates a new session file in this folder. I am not sure what's going wrong here. Is this a permissions issue?
The session file (in writable/session folder) has permission 600 i.e. group has read/write.
Is that causing an issue? I am not sure. How do I fix it?

You need $ss = session()->get($key);

Yes if I want a single vallue then I can provide a key but session()->get() returns all the session data.

Yes I have already put this in the constructor
Code:
$session = \Config\Services::session();On my local windows machine, everything works well (even without the above line in the constructor).

I have now tried Database option too but still no luck. Locally, on Windows machine, both files and database work without any issues.
I am pretty sure it's something to do with cookies settings but most of the config is what you have there by default. I haven't made any made any modifications. Also, I have got the latest code of CI4.
What's goig wrong with cookies?

do you use the same web server config on host/remote ? you should get the "almost" same result on any host -> so pls compare your configs and look for some uncommon errors/messages in your web server log.
sry cant help you much as long as we cant reproduce the problem.

Yes I understand. Everything was same except on the Ubuntu server I had php fpm. I changed that to mod_php and it seemed to have fix the issue for me. It was a very odd issue really.

I start the sessions in a Base controller that all the other controllers extend.
In the constructor I have the sessions like so.
PHP Code:
/**
* __construct ()
* -------------------------------------------------------------------
*
* Class Constructor
*
* NOTE: Not needed if not setting values or extending a Class.
*
*/
public function __construct()
{
// Ensure session is started and running
if (session_status() == PHP_SESSION_NONE)
{
// session has not started so start it
session()->start();
}
}
I can then use the $__SESSION global any place in the app even views.
