PHP Login Disappeared

[Bin]

Hello Everyone.

 

I have a very strange situation at one of my application login page. I received the following errors

These are the errors I am receiving in regards to PHP

 

folderpath [Date] PHP Warning: session_start() [<a href='function.session-start'>function.session-start</a>]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home/positix6/public_html/pform/index.php:2) in /home/positix6/public_html/pform/incCommon.php on line 35

folderpath [Date]PHP Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/positix6/public_html/pform/index.php:2) in /home/positix6/public_html/pform/incCommon.php on line 36 folderpath [Date] PHP Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/positix6/public_html/pform/index.php:2) in /home/positix6/public_html/pform/incCommon.php on line 37

 

I was suggested to check for spaces before your opening <?php tag at might be the most likely cause.

 

I did all that but still I can't see that login options (Username and Password) boxes. I didn't change anything in the code and everything was working fine few days back but suddenly the portion mentioned above just disappeared. 

 

I would really appreciate anyone's help since this is quite frustrating and frankly strange.

 

Thanks

We'd need to see incCommon.php, specifically the first like 40 lines.

Here it is!!

<?php

ob_start();

 

// check if setup was performed or not yet

$setupStyle="border: solid 1px red; background-color: #FFFFE0; color: red; font-size: 16px; font-family: arial; font-weight: bold; padding: 10px; width:400px; text-align: left;";

if(!is_file(dirname(__FILE__)."/config.php")){

?>

<center>

<div style="<?php echo $setupStyle ?>">

Program setup was not performed yet. Please log in to the

<a href="setup.php">setup page</a>

first.

</div>

</center>

<?php

exit;

}

if(!is_file(dirname(__FILE__)."/admin/incConfig.php")){

?>

<center>

<div style="<?php echo $setupStyle ?>">

Admin setup was not performed. Please log in to the

<a href="admin/">admin control panel</a>

to perform the setup.

</div>

</center>

<?php

exit;

}

// -----------------------------------------

include(dirname(__FILE__)."/admin/incFunctions.php");

include(dirname(__FILE__)."/admin/incConfig.php");

session_start();

header("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate");

header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");

 

// check if membership system exists

setupMembership();

 

// do we have a login request?

if($_POST['signIn']!=''){

if(logInMember()){

redirect("index.php");

}

}

Can you also please post the first 15 lines of index.php?  And PLEASE use

tags to make your code readable.

<?php
if (!isset($_SESSION)) {
session_start();
}
?>
<?php
include(dirname(__FILE__)."/incCommon.php");
include(dirname(__FILE__)."/header.php");

?><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css"><?php

if($_GET['signOut']==1){
	logOutMember();
}

$arrTables=getTableList();
?><div class="TableFooter" align="right">

	</div>
</div>
<div align="center"><img src="/pform/images/logo2.jpg" width="186" height="77" />	<br>
    </div>

Anyone with any idea regarding this issue??

[DarkWater]

Sorry, went out with some friends.  Remove session_start() from the incCommon.php on line 35 and all the errors should go away.

[Bin]

I am afraid its still the same. Any more ideas of information that your require to do some in depth trouble shooting?

[Asheeown]

Limit the session starts and the header changes to one common page only, for instance if incCommon.php is going to be directly or indirectly included on a page it can hold the session_start() and header details and the rest of the pages don't need to set it if they are called after this page.

[Bin]

I am sorry but can you please elaborate on your point of view. I am not php developer.

 

Thanks

[redarrow]

your code would off worke just stick a ob_flus_end(); at the end off the page.......

[Bin]

That didn't work. However I am getting this error after removing session_start() from inCommon.php and placing session_start() at the beginning of index.php.

Any ideas ??

Something, somewhere is outputting data before sessions start.

 

This is the problem. Unfortunately, we can't see your exact setup or your files. Best thing to do is step through your code bit by bit until you find the source of the error (abuse exit; and die() statements).
