Scripts to test PHP sessions on your server

[Joel - FL TEAM]

Some servers may require a setting change in the php.ini file in order to configure PHP sessions to work correctly.

We have prepared two PHP scripts that will test if the PHP session system works
correctly. The scripts can be downloaded by clicking on the following links:

Session test
Session test handler

These scripts must be uploaded to your website (in any folder), both scripts must be in the same folder.

Access the first script through a browser:

http://<server>/<path>/session_test.php

It should not show any php errors and it should report that session is successfully created. The script will set the value for the "abc" session variable. At the bottom of the page, there is a link that must be followed. When link is followed, it will display the value of the "abc" session variable. If it doesn't match the initial value, or if any of the php errors are displayed PHP is not configured properly and you will need to edit the php.ini file to configure it correctly.
