[Phpwiki-talk] Session ignored.

[Peter L. <pe...@Up...>]

Hi,

We've been using phpwiki 1.3.10 for a while doing just fine.
Suddenly, a few days ago, the wiki just stoped keeping track of 
login sessions.

The session is stored in the mysql database table and the webbrowser sends 
the correct sessionstring (via the PHPSESSID cookie), but phpwiki seems 
to ignore it after the (successfull) login.

I'm at a loss - any clues?

Do you have any clue what was changed about this time on your machine?
php sessions are quite fragile.

Wow, that was fast :)

Sadly no - I've submited a ticket to the webhosting company requesting 
information on this (thinking that *might* at least provide a starting 
point).

According to the webhost-staff nothing changed, so I guess that is all the 
information that I will get.

Is there some way to debug this present in the code or should I start with 
sprinkling debug statements?

You've heard about the computer programmer 
that died while washing his hair in the shower?

The instructions said, 'Lather, rinse, repeat.'
