Hi guys!, can you help me?
I have a problem with session flashdata. never the message containing the session is displayed.

I have this routes:

PHP Code:

//index is a subfolder into the controllers folder
//user is a controller
$route['login']             = 'index/user/showLogin';
$route['do_login']          = 'index/user/doLogin';
$route['register']          = 'index/user/showRegister';
$route['do_register']       = 'index/user/doRegister'; 


user.php controller:

PHP Code:

public function showRegister()
{
   $this->template->set('title', 'test register');
   $this->template->load('template', 'index/register', $data);
}

public function doRegister()
{
   $this->form_validation->set_rules('email',      'Email',                'required|trim|max_length[30]|xss_clean|valid_email|is_unique[users.email]|');
   $this->form_validation->set_rules('password',   'Password',           'required|trim|min_length[6]|max_length[20]|xss_clean|alpha_dash');
   $this->form_validation->set_rules('rrpassword', 'Re Password',   'required|trim|min_length[6]|max_length[20]|xss_clean|matches[password]|alpha_dash');

   if($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
   {
    $this->showRegister();
   }
   else
   {
       $email      = $this->input->post('email');
       $pass       = $this->input->post('password');
       $password   = $this->bcrypt->hash_password($pass);

       // check if the password was encrypted
       if ($this->bcrypt->check_password($pass, $password))
       {
           $data =array(
               'email'     => $email,
               'password'  => $password,
           );

           $insert = $this->user_model->register($data);

           if(!$insert)
           {
               echo 'error';
           }
           $this->session->set_flashdata('info', 'registered');
           redirect('login', 'refresh');
       }
       else
       {
           $this->session->set_flashdata('info', 'Oops.. error...');
           redirect(base_url('login'), 'refresh');
       }
    }
  } 


to display messages I do this in the view "login":

PHP Code:

<div class="alert alert-info alert-dismissible" role="alert">
   <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert"><span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span><span class="sr-only">Close</span></button>
   Test: <?php echo $this->session->flashdata('info'); ?>
</div> 


But never the message is printed. i Tried this:

PHP Code:

$this->session->set_flashdata('info', 'test......');
$this->session->keep_flashdata('info');
redirect('login', 'refresh'); 


But not works. Also add the favicon.ico to the root folder, but does not work. I'm trying to fix it a few hours ago. It may be the version of PHP?
Also i tried this:

PHP Code:

$this->session->sess_create();
$this->session->set_flashdata('info', 'test......');
redirect('login', 'refresh');

Can you change the name of the subfolder "index" in the controllers Folder to another name to something else like "member" and try again?

I think CI is having problem interpreting the URL since it contains the "index" keyword

[Smith]

Hi ohiageorge, thanks for your reply.
i changed name of subfolder "index" to "test" but not works. I tested everything and still not working. Can you think of anything else?

[Rufnex]

What are your session settings?

[Smith]

Hi Rufnex, thanks for your reply.
you want to say? I cannot understand

[Rufnex]

In your /application/config/config.php there is a section "Session Variables". i want to check if there is all well done there.
Btw .. do you load the session library?

PHP Code:

$this->load->library('session'); // or in your autoload.php 


What you do seams absolutly right. You can also try a simple test

PHP Code:

$this->session->set_flashdata('item', 'value');
echo $this->session->flashdata('item');
print_r($this->session->flashdata()); 


Load this 2 or more times any you should see a filled array.

[Smith]

Hello again,
I load library this way:

autoload.php

PHP Code:

$autoload['libraries'] = array('form_validation','input','session','template','database','breadcrumbs'); 


Also i try loading the library on the builder, but not working. In my config.php file on Session Variables i have this:

PHP Code:

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Encryption Key
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| If you use the Encryption class or the Session class you
| MUST set an encryption key.  See the user guide for info.
|
*/
$config['encryption_key'] = '#[email protected]$';

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Session Variables
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| 'sess_cookie_name'        = the name you want for the cookie
| 'sess_expiration'            = the number of SECONDS you want the session to last.
|   by default sessions last 7200 seconds (two hours).  Set to zero for no expiration.
| 'sess_expire_on_close'    = Whether to cause the session to expire automatically
|   when the browser window is closed
| 'sess_encrypt_cookie'        = Whether to encrypt the cookie
| 'sess_use_database'        = Whether to save the session data to a database
| 'sess_table_name'            = The name of the session database table
| 'sess_match_ip'            = Whether to match the user's IP address when reading the session data
| 'sess_match_useragent'    = Whether to match the User Agent when reading the session data
| 'sess_time_to_update'        = how many seconds between CI refreshing Session Information
|
*/
$config['sess_cookie_name']        = 'ci_session';
$config['sess_expiration']        = 7200;
$config['sess_expire_on_close']    = TRUE;
$config['sess_encrypt_cookie']    = TRUE;
$config['sess_use_database']    = FALSE;
$config['sess_table_name']        = 'ci_sessions';
$config['sess_match_ip']        = FALSE;
$config['sess_match_useragent']    = TRUE;
$config['sess_time_to_update']    = 300; 


I Added the code you told me and I get this error:

A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Warning

Message: Missing argument 1 for CI_Session::flashdata(), called in C:\xampp\htdocs\projects\application\controllers\test\user.php on line 81 and defined

Filename: libraries/Session.php

Line Number: 578
A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Notice

Message: Undefined variable: key

Filename: libraries/Session.php

Line Number: 580

the "$key" variable refers to the constant encryption_key?.
when i add this code:

PHP Code:

$this->session->set_flashdata('item', 'value');
echo $this->session->flashdata('item');
print_r($this->session->flashdata('item')); 


this not print anything on screen.
Again thank you for your response

[Rufnex]

Ups i think in CI 2 you must give flashdata() the property name as parameter. Have you also checked your cookie setting in the config.php?

[Rufnex]

Btw, have you installed (our new friend) mycrpyt on your server (phpinfo() will tell you about). In CI 2 you will need it.

[Smith]

Hi Rufnex,
downloaded again CI and created a separate project. and working correctly. apparently i configured incorrectly config.php file. I never thought I was going to be that. I apologize for stealing so long. Thank you very much.
