[Sessions Stored In Db Functions]

Actually $dbc->error_code() is making my pages timeout. I am using isset() to see if that works.

That works but I don't get why sometimes it would be attempting to write to session before opening the session. I trapped it and it goes to write first and I have not done anything with sessions.

I altered your code to use PDO without any problems....except when one of my queries goes bad. Then I get two errors....

 

Fatal error: Call to undefined method PDOStatement::prepare() in \finalize.php on line 139

Fatal error: Call to a member function prepare() on a non-object in \db_sessions.inc.php on line 84

 

The first was from a failed query. The second is line #84 which is the write_session() function. The funny thing is that if I insert code to establish $dbc inside write_session() and rerun that would eliminate the second error.

 

Then I put simple echo statements in the open_session() and write_session() and whenever my query goes bad it fails to open_session() before write_session() which is why I get the second error. Do you know why this is happening?

 

 

Sorry for late response, I did not subscribe to topic.

I switched over to storing them into a db as done in the book but I notice that when my code has errors, often it leads to an error in the write_session() function. Calling on a function on a non-object, $dbc. The funny thing is that there is no code to write to the session but there is code to read session data.

 

It appears to be trying to write a session before opening the session and establishing a db connection. I confirmed it by putting code inside the write_session() function to open a new connection at each call.
