oceans Posted May 29, 2007 Author Share Posted May 29, 2007 Can anyone tell me how can I remove the orphaned session files. I noted, though I have routines to clear the sessions, if user closes explorer abruptly, the server collects session files.

oceans Posted June 1, 2007 Author Share Posted June 1, 2007 Friends, I manage to get this page but could not piece things together http://www.phpfreaks.com/phpmanual/page/ref.session.html can any kind sole help me :'( My situation: Though I have sequence to clear a session at the end of a work, if user simply presses the "X" on top right or top left, this sequence is never reached thus this session file get orphanned and left not removed. All I want is remove it after say 10 mins, because no one will likely be viewing my page for more then 10 mins.

per1os Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Look in your php.ini in there gives you the option to set the session directory that or the httpd.conf for apache.

per1os Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Usually a general timeout is 20 minutes. www.php.net/session_destroy Not sure if that would help you at all.
