CI 1.7 Session destroy

[eluser]Thorpe Obazee[/eluser]
I am having quite a problem with the $this->session->sess_destroy()

When I use it, I can still echo the session variable. Here's what my code looks like. I am using CI 1.7

Code:

$this->session->sess_destroy();
        $this->session->set_flashdata('message', $this->lang->line('user_logged_out'));
        redirect('classifieds');

ok.. I just tested the others and found out that the other logout routines are now not working on my app since the upgrade to 1.7.

The temporary fix I did was to unset_userdata first before the destroy. although I doubt that the destroy worked.

Code:

// --------------------------------------------------------------------

    /**
    * @desc Logging  out action for the application
    *
    * @access public
    */
    public function logout()
    {
        $this->session->unset_userdata('username');
        $this->session->unset_userdata('first_name');
        $this->session->unset_userdata('last_name');
        $this->session->unset_userdata('role');
        $this->session->sess_destroy();
        $this->session->set_flashdata('message', $this->lang->line('user_logged_out'));
        redirect('classifieds');
    } // End logout

Yes, we are having the same problem. In the library Session.php, destroying a session only deals with the cookie; it doesn't deal with the session variables.

sess_destroy() is working fine for me with the session data stored in the database For me calling the sess_destroy will actually delete the session database entry completely. Not sure why its not working for you guys?

Please give an example of a reliable technique for determining whether or not the user's session is active.

Thank you

I am not using any database to store the session.

I might use the database for storing sessions. Will be converting on the weekends.

I am using a database to hold sessions.
I also have set 2 userdata variables.
When I call sess_destroy, it deletes the record in the database, but I am still able to echo my userdata.

My temporary fix is to use session->unset_userdata().

Any thoughts?

I guess we are having the same issue.
