Sessions Hateme !!

Dec 03

Today i was working on a clinet webpage and i was building a prototype of the site on my local server. However after finishing most of the requirment  in one big session. i left the system to get something to eat ( And i wish i didn’t ><)

When i came back i found out that my user session on the site expired for being Idel ( which is good ) but i couldn’t login again O_O … even though the user / password is correct the login page keep appearing .. i thought it’s a problem with the cash in the browser so i used another one but the same problem happened .

looks like it’s a bug in the script i used so i couldn’t relogin again … anyone faced this problem .. i don’t want to redo all my work :( .

P.S the script is not written by me it was provided to me to install it for the client.

  1. I had the same problem with Arab National Bank. They said it was a DB problem. It does not make any sense but they solved it afterwords. If you know anyone in anb, you could simply ask him/her how they had solved it:)

    • Thanks,
      it was true a DB problem . when i checked my login-in the session table in the DB i found out that it records 2 record for the session which confuse the system about which session to use.
      a workaround solved the problem :)

  2. Dude. what script language are you using?
    care to mail it?

    Btw, session state are saved in the server, nothing to do with the browser.

    • Well i manage to bypass it .. it was a known issue and there was a work around so i manged to get it to work
