Interview Question in SQL Server Security
Interview Question :: PHP session problems on shared servers
Hello,
I have built a few websites now with PHP sessions. They always work fine on my computer when I test them, but I always have many problems with users. Most of the solutions that I find online all recommend that I modify the php.ini file which I can’t do because these sites are on shared hosting accounts. Here are the main problems...
Proxy Servers - When people are in a corporate environment and have their security cranked up or are behind proxy servers none of the session variables work. This ruins everything from the shopping cart even to the login. I have looked at my script over and over and it seems basic and works on all the computers I test so I don't think that's the issue.
Cookies - The only time I have problems are if I disable cookies. I that cookies aren't even used on the users computer, only the server? That confuses me even more. I tried a script that saves session data to a SQL database?
How do sites like Amazon deal with sessions?
