Fire the mailserver administrator and employ a better one?

Dear PHP gurus,

I moved to PHP from asp around version 4.something. When i tried using
sessions on my site, they just wouldn't work. No error messages, just
wouldn't work. There was a session ID generated, but if i tried....

$_SESSION['test'] = "somedata";

<a href="page2.php">check session value</a>

on page one and click on the link to page two with something like this,

echo $_SESSION['test'];

nothing was displayed. I was just playing with php at that point and just
ignored it and looked into .NET for a few months, (non related issue).

Once I upgraded to version 5.2, (i noted that in version 5.1, sessions still
didn't work), the problem disappeared, but i didn't notice anything in the
bug list of 5.1 noting this. Now an associate is having the same problem on
a site that is not planning to upgrade past 5.1 anytime soon. What are we
missing?

Note; I spent many hours trying to save session data in a db and other
setting changes to no avail.

strange. i must be missing something simple.

Thanks - php rocks!

Cheers from Shanghai

Fritz

Maybe...

http://ca.php.net/manual/en/function.session-start.php

Do you have error logging enabled? What level? What are your session
settings in php.ini (search for [Session]). Maybe the session file can't
be written to where you want it written.

Cheers,
Rob.

Hi,

It is about time I made the jump to 5, however the only thing that is
holding me back is the problem with hosts. How many hosts still run php 4
and am I going to have to spend hours and hours persuading them to upgrade
before I can run my code?

I have very little time as it is and am anxious that this is going to be
swallowed up on the phone to hosing companies and their rubbish technical
staff.

Please let me know if I will find this an easy transition or should I hold
off for now.

R.
