PHP $_SESSION Expiring in IE 6/*

Taz
comp.lang.php,

I have recently launched the new Planet-Tolkien.com, one would think
that writing a message board from scratch and a dynamic weather
system, a simple session login would be the least of my problems
right? Wrong.

It would appear that for Mozilla and Opera keep a $_SESSION is not an
issue and the $_SESSION is continued until the member logs out.
However when members are using Internet Explorer browser (most
versions it seems), they can go around the site for varied amounts of
time, usually less than five minutes and then their $_SESSION will
expire!!??

I cannot for the life of me figure out why a server side $_SESSION
would expire on IE but not for MOZ or Opera but it is, and I need to
figure out why and how can I fix this.

REF. All login information is saved as such:

session_save_pa th("$path/sessions");
session_start() ; $_SESSION['session_member ID']=$session_membe rID;
$_SESSION['session_userna me']=$session_usern ame;
$_SESSION['session_groupI D']=$membergroup;

In Fellowship,
Tarrant

What is the most standardized method of utilizing the CURL functions in PHP (version 4.3.2) to be able to retrieve the contents of a remote URL that happens to be dependent upon $_SESSION for its content display? I've tried the following class methods for display and I have most everything working until I get to a URL that requires $_SESSION: class Timer extends View {

On an xp machine, the caching works as expected. I have deployed to a win2k server, and an item I add to the cache expires almost immediately some times and in under a minute in other times. The aspnet_wp process is not restarting during this time, and there are no other requests, so nothing should be clearing this out. I have added a CacheItemRemovedCallback which writes debug info out to a DefaultTraceListener, but no output shows up on...

Someone please tell me if I've discovered a PHP bug. I'm sitting in front of several computers on my home network, behind a NAT firewall/router. I am testing my web site on these different computers (running different browsers, logged in as different users, etc.). My web site keeps track of users logged in through the use of $_SESSION. Here's the bizarre thing: All computers are logged off, then I log into my web site with one...

Hi, I have a problem with the expiring self signed certificate on our server. Warning Event IDs 12017 and 12018 occuring every few minutes in the Application Event viewer. I have run the 'New-ExchangeCertificate' cmdlet with no parameters and that has created a new certificate in the same location as the expiring one. ***** However, the warnings continue. Do I need to do something else?? *****

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
