PHP htaccess and session problem

[kukipei]

Hi to all,

 

I have some strange problem. I am using this .htaccess file

 

Options +FollowSymLinks 
RewriteEngine On

DirectoryIndex mvm.php
ErrorDocument 404 /mvm.php
RewriteRule ^chessdatabase/$ /mvm.php [L]
RewriteRule ^searchposition/(.*)/$ /search-database-position.php?fen=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)/searchposition/(.*)/$ /search-database-position.php?fen=$2&page=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^chessgame/(.*)/(.*)/([0-9]+)/$ /chessgame.php?gameid=$3 [L]
RewriteRule ^onlinechessdatabase/$ /search-form.php [L]
RewriteRule ^onlinechessdatabase/([0-9]+)/$ /search-form.php?page=$1 [L]

# If requested resource does not exist as a file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
# and does not end with a period followed by a filetype
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\..+$
# and does not end with a slash
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^(.*)/$
# then add a trailing slash and redirect
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.gensunasumus.com/$1/ [L,R=301]

 

 

 

Problem is that when I use some rewrite rule php does not send session to page.

For example when I come to: http://www.gensunasumus.com/chessdatabase/

PHP does not send session,

But when I use http://www.gensunasumus.com/mvm.php everything is OK.

What can be a problem? Hope you understand my problem.

Thanks in advance

I can't personally see how the .htaccess could possibly effect whether your page is part of a session. I could potentially understand if you were masking another URL as the cookie would be registered against a different domain, but in this case your obviously not. Since sessions are handled by PHP if you are arriving at the right page it should be part of the session. Do you have session_start() at the top of all the pages you wish to be part of the session? The only thing I can suggest trying is checking your Cookies under both situations and see if there is any difference for the SESSIONID. The web developer toolbar for Firefox is pretty handy for this. On a side note, using frames with IE can affect sessions, but I don't see how this will relate in your case.

What does a phpinfo() statement show for the session.cookie_path setting?

Thanks for anwering,

 

I am using session_start() and I don't see any difference for the SESSIONID. This .htaccess file works well on my local but when I upload it on my site it doesn't work.

 

session.cookie_path from phpinfo() is:  /
