Question

i was developing my php application and using mysql to store session data and $_SESSION was working fine in both root and subfolers. but now when i create new subfolers , writing sessions works in them but i can’t read the sessions . for example

$_SESSION['username'] = 'james';

it works fine and both session_id and session_data are stored in my mysql session table.
and the session id stored in my browser matches the id in table but when i want to use it(read data from mysql) it doesn’t work in new subfolers . for example:

echo $_SESSION['username'];

it doesn’t work.
and it’s funny because when i copy the file in my previous subfolers it works all fine.
and i don’t use .htaccess in my subfolers.

really confused. thanks for help

Answer 1

You’re probably missing session_start(); on one or more pages.

Edit:
Like Zanrok said, it’s hard to diagnose your problem without seeing any of your code.
