The session management system supports a number of configuration
|
|
options which you can place in your &php.ini; file. We will give a
|
|
short overview.

<simpara>
|
|
<literal>session.save_handler</literal> defines the name of the
|
|
handler which is used for storing and retrieving data
|
|
associated with a session. Defaults to
|
|
<literal>files</literal>. Note that individual extensions may register
|
|
their own <literal>save_handler</literal>s; registered handlers can be
|
|
obtained on a per-installation basis by referring to
|
|
<function>phpinfo</function>. See also
|
|
<function>session_set_save_handler</function>.

<listitem>

|
|
<literal>session.save_path</literal> defines the argument which
|
|
is passed to the save handler. If you choose the default files
|
|
handler, this is the path where the files are created. See also
|
|
<function>session_save_path</function>.
|
|
</simpara>
|
|
<para>
|
|
There is an optional <literal>N</literal> argument to this directive that determines
|
|
the number of directory levels your session files will be spread
|
|
around in. For example, setting to <literal>'5;/tmp'</literal>
|
|
may end up creating a session file and location like
|
|
<literal>/tmp/4/b/1/e/3/sess_4b1e384ad74619bd212e236e52a5a174If
|
|
</literal>. In order to use <literal>N</literal> you must create all of these
|
|
directories before use. A small shell script exists in
|
|
<filename>ext/session</filename> to do this, it's called
|
|
<filename>mod_files.sh</filename>, with a Windows version called
|
|
<filename>mod_files.bat</filename>. Also note that if <literal>N</literal> is
|
|
used and greater than 0 then automatic garbage collection will
|
|
not be performed, see a copy of &php.ini; for further
|
|
information. Also, if you use <literal>N</literal>, be sure to surround
|
|
<literal>session.save_path</literal> in
|
|
"quotes" because the separator (<literal>;</literal>) is
|
|
also used for comments in &php.ini;.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The file storage module creates files using mode 600 by default.
|
|
This default can be changed with the optional <literal>MODE</literal> argument:
|
|
<literal>N;MODE;/path</literal> where <literal>MODE</literal> is the octal
|
|
representation of the mode.
|
|
Setting <literal>MODE</literal> does not affect the process umask.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<warning>
|
|
<para>
|
|
If this is set to a world-readable directory, such as
|
|
<filename>/tmp</filename> (the default), other users on the
|
|
server may be able to hijack sessions by getting the list of
|
|
files in that directory.
|
|
</para>
|
|
</warning>
|
|
<caution>
|
|
<para>
|
|
When using the optional directory level argument <literal>N</literal>,
|
|
as described above, note that using a value higher than 1 or 2 is
|
|
inappropriate for most sites due to the large number of directories
|
|
required: for example, a value of 3 implies that <literal>(2 ** session.sid_bits_per_character) ** 3</literal>
|
|
directories exist on the filesystem, which can result in a lot of wasted
|
|
space and inodes.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Only use <literal>N</literal> greater than 2 if you are absolutely
|
|
certain that your site is large enough to require it.

serialize format (name <literal>php_serialize</literal>), PHP

internal formats (name <literal>php</literal> and

<literal>php_binary</literal>) and WDDX are supported (name

<literal>wddx</literal>). WDDX is only available, if PHP is
|

compiled with <link linkend="ref.wddx">WDDX

support</link>. <literal>php_serialize</literal> uses plain
|
|
serialize/unserialize function internally and does not have
|
|
limitations that <literal>php</literal>
|
|
and <literal>php_binary</literal> have. Older serialize handlers
|
|
cannot store numeric index nor string index contains special
|
|
characters (<literal>|</literal> and <literal>!</literal>) in
|
|
$_SESSION. Use <literal>php_serialize</literal> to avoid numeric
|
|
index or special character errors at script shutdown. Defaults

to <literal>php</literal>.

<literal>session.gc_maxlifetime</literal> specifies the number

potentially cleaned up. Garbage collection may occur during session start
|
|
(depending on <link

|
linkend="ini.session.gc-probability">session.gc_probability</link> and

<link linkend="ini.session.gc-divisor">session.gc_divisor</link>).

If different scripts have different values of

<literal>session.gc_maxlifetime</literal> but share the same place for

storing the session data then the script with the minimum value will be

cleaning the data. In this case, use this directive together with <link

<literal>session.entropy_file</literal> gives a path to an

external resource (file) which will be used as an additional

entropy source in the session id creation process. Examples are

<literal>/dev/random</literal> or <literal>/dev/urandom</literal>
