mojavi sessions problem

[K.]

Hello!!!!

I have a problems with sessions in mojavi technology.

I have created a login panel to log into the system:
Unfortunately sessions variable disappears while trying to click on any
other <a hreflink on my page and user has to log into the system many
times.
How to build a page to have session variables values available on every page
on my system
and how to avoid using $user->setAttribute('session_variable','value'); on
every view file
of every files stored in the system.

session_start();
$_SESSION["session_variable"] = "value";

declared once should store the value of this session variable on every page
and when I created
clear PHP systems (without any more technology) based on the above code it
was working well all the time.

I heard that $user->setAttribute('session_variable','value') is equal as
$_SESSION["session_variable"] = "value";
but why it doesn`t work?

How to do this on mojavi?

Please help me

You need to call session_start() at the beginning of EVERY page which
uses sessions. The first page is not enough. But you don't need to set
your variable on every page - just set it once and you can retrieve it
on other pages.

Unfortunately it still doesn`t work...

I have the first file where I`ve implemented session variable $user. I`ve
made some changes to make the code easier to understand

First file PassageLoginLoginAction.php

<?php
session_start();
require_once(LIB_DIR . "Action.lib.php");

class PassageLoginLoginAction extends Action {

function execute(&$controller, &$request, &$user) {

$user->authenticate(true);
$user->setAttribute("variable_login", $data["Login"]);

$controller->forward("PassageAfterLogin", "Index");
return VIEW_NONE;
}
}
?>
-----------------------------------------------------------
Second file is PassageAfterLoginIndexAction
-----------------------------------------------------------

<?php
session_start();
require_once(LIB_DIR . "ScreenErrorHandler.lib.php");
require_once(LIB_DIR . "Action.lib.php");

class PassageAfterLoginIndexAction extends Action {
function execute(&$controller, &$request, &$user) {

$user->setAttribute("passage_login_session",
$user->getAttribute('variable_login_session'));
$user->setAttribute("variable_login",
$user->getAttribute('variable_login'));

$controller->forward('PassageAfterLogin','View');
return VIEW_NONE;

}
}

?>

-----------------------------------------------------------
Third file is PassageAfterLoginViewAction.php
-----------------------------------------------------------
<?php
session_start();
require_once(LIB_DIR . "Action.lib.php");

class PassageAfterLoginViewAction extends Action {
function execute(&$controller, &$request, &$user) {

$user->setAttribute("variable_login_session",
$user->getAttribute('variable_login_session'));
$user->setAttribute("variable_login",
$user->getAttribute('variable_login'));

return VIEW_SUCCESS;
}
}
?>
-----------------------------------------------------------
4th file is PassageAfterLoginViewSuccessView.class.php
-----------------------------------------------------------

<?php
session_start();
require_once(LIB_DIR . "SmartyView.lib.php");

class PassageAfterLoginViewSuccessView extends SmartyView {
function execute(&$controller, &$request, &$user) {

$this->renderer->setTemplate("index.tpl");

$this->renderer->setAttribute('variable_login_session',$user->getAttribute('variable_login_session'));
$this->renderer->setAttribute('variable_login',$user->getAttribute('variable_login'));

parent::execute($controller, $request, $user);

}
}

?>

-----------------------------------------------------------
5th file is index.tpl
-----------------------------------------------------------
......
<table class="mainLayout"><tbody>
{include file="login.tpl"}
</tbody></table>
.....
-----------------------------------------------------------
6th file is login.tpl

-----------------------------------------------------------
{if $variable_login_session=='well_loged'}
<tr><td class="separatorRow"></td></tr>
<tr>
<td class="footerPane">
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="footerPaneLeft">
<b><h style="color:white;">Actual logged:</h></b{$variable_login}
&nbsp;&nbsp; | &nbsp;&nbsp;
<a href="{ $scriptName }"><b><h style="color:white;">Log
out</h></b></a>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
{/if}
================================================== ========
When the above code is being called everything works fine. But when I click
on the other (didn`t mention in the
above files) <a hreflink which also has session_start() call at the
beginning of the file, it the login.tpl if statement
can`t let get inside the code and actual logged person is not displayed.

Please help me

Well, first of all, you're using Smarty, which changes things a lot.
It's not just your PHP code any more.

Is the href pointing at the same domain as the rest? That is, if you're
page is www.example.com/page1.php, is the page being referenced
something like www.example.com/page2.php?

The reason I ask is that browsers won't send a cookie created by one
domain to another domain (security issue - and PHP uses cookies for the
session id).

Otherwise I would recommend you ask in the Smarty discussion forums.
Someone's probably run into it there.

Also, when replying to a message, please copy the relevant part of the
message and post your response below the copied text (as I did here), or
, in the case of a long message, interspaced in the message. It helps
to keep the continuity and we don't have to keep going back to look at
previous messages. Thanks.

Ah, my mistake. You're using Mojavi - which I hadn't heard of before.
And I see their website is under renovation. I'm not sure how many
people here have used it - I don't think I've heard it mentioned here
before, although I could have missed it.

It will be a lot tougher to help you in this case. But maybe someone
who is using it (or has used it) can help out.

I have found out what it was. I had to create a /tmp folder in the folder
where I have web page.
In the tmp folder where session created. If it doesn`t exist, there is no
session created.
There is such configuration on the ftp server this page is placed.
The main thing which helped was phpinfo

Thank you all for reading my posts

Ah, next time, enable error display/log, PHP would've told you in an
instant :).
