[SOLVED] session var will not set

[SN1P3R_85]

I made a program that generates random passwords for a user if they want to have their password reset. At the end, i make an array, and save its value into a session var. For some reason, the session var wont' set.

 

<?php
session_start();
include( 'SQL_PASS.inc' );

$valid = $_SESSION['passresetvalid'];
$id = $_SESSION['id'];

if ($valid == false)
{
//gonna put ip logger here
die('There was an error, password was not reset');
exit();
}

srand ((double) microtime( )*1000000000000);
$password = "" . rand(0, 9) . "";
$alphabet = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz';
$digits = 10;

$digits = $digits - 2;

while ($digits >= 0)
{
$alphanum = rand(1, 50);
$alphanum = $alphanum % 2;

if ($alphanum == 1)
{
	$password .= "" . rand(0, 9) . "";
}
else
{
	$casenum = rand(1, 50);
	$casenum = $casenum % 2;
	$letter = $alphabet[rand(0, 26)];

	if ($casenum == 1)
	{
		$letter = strtoupper($letter);
	}

	$password .= "" . $letter . "";
}

/*for($x=5; $x<=rand(50, 100); $x++)
{
	echo "";
	for($y=5; $y<=rand(50, 100); $y++)
	{
		echo "";
		for($z=5; $z<=rand(50, 100); $z++)		//extra delay
		{
			echo "";
		}
	}
}*/

$digits--;
}

if (!$con)
{
die('Could not connect to database: ' . mysql_error());	//if cannot connect, kills program and displays msg
}
elseif (!$db_select)
{
die('Could not select database: ' . mysql_error());	//if cannot select db, kills program and displays msg
}

$query = "UPDATE `users` SET Password='$password' WHERE Id='$id'";
$result = mysql_query($query);

if (!$query)
{
die('major error has occured');
exit();
}

$query = "SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE Id='$id'";
$result = mysql_query($query);

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$recipient = $row['Email'];
$subject = 'lost password';
$mailbody = 'Hello ' . $row['Username'] . ',<br />Your password has been successfully reset. Your new password is: <b>' . $password . '</b> . I reccommend that you change it, and you can do that at the control panel on your account.';
$header = "From: www.*********.com\n";
$header .= "To: " . $recipient . "\n";
$header .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$header .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n";

$email_msg = mail($recipient, $subject, $mailbody, $header);
}

if (!$email_msg)
{
die('Error sending email');
}

$message = "Your password has been successfully changed. An email has been sent with your new password. We recommend that you change your password as soon as you get your new one. You will now be redirected back to the homepage in ";
$delay = 5;
$location = "http://www.caidenhome.com";
$redirdata = array($message, $delay, $location);

$_SESSION['redirpack'] = $redirdata;  // THIS IS THE SESSION THAT WON'T SET, RIGHT HERE !!!!

unset($_SESSION['passresetvalid']);
unset($_SESSION['id']);
header("location: http://www.********.com/redirect.php");
exit();

I didnt' realize how large the code was, session that won't set is at bottom of code.

[BloodyMind]

you can serialize it use serialize() and when calling unserialize() easier to handle arrays in different environments, I didn't understand what u wanted to do anyways but it's all fine lol

I fixed it, i cut and pasted the code back, and it somehow worked, lol. I'm guessing it was some kind of server error.
