Question

hello im taking variables from $_POST and stores them in Sessions but i cant figure out why my program creates two files per $_POST och empty and one with my variables.

session_start();
session_regenerate_id();


$_SESSION['S_LocalIP'] = $_POST['LocalIP'];
$_SESSION['S_Computername'] = $_POST['Computername'];
$_SESSION['S_GUID'] = $_POST['GUID'];
$_SESSION['S_BaseAddress'] = $_POST['BaseAddress'];

var_dump($_POST);
session_write_close();

everything works like i want except i get the one empty session file aswell.

Answer 1

The problem is that you use session_regenerate_id(), use session_regenerate_id(true) instead to remove the old id.

The first parameter for this function is $delete_old_session which by default is set to false.
