I'm having a problem with Symfony creating a new session on each page load, rather than carrying data across requests. The auto_start in the session section in the config.yml is set to false, and regular php sessions work fine. It's only when running in symfony that I get the problem.
For example, I created the test action:
public function sessionTestAction()
{
$s_Response = '<html><head></head><body><p>Foo</p></body></html>'; //Initialize response and headers
$a_Headers = array();
$i_StatusCode = 200;
$oSession = $this->get('session');
var_dump($oSession->all());
if(!$oSession->has('Test'))
{
$oSession->set('Test', 'Bar');
}
$oSession->save();
return new Response($s_Response, $i_StatusCode, $a_Headers);
}
The expected action is, that on the first page load, the var_dump will yield nothing, and that on any subsequent executions, it will contain Test=>Bar. However, it never gets that data across requests.
In addition, it creates a new session id for each request.
I am using Symfony v2.0.15, and PHP v5.4
Anyone have any ideas?
Edit:
I made some progress, I think. I made the following changes to the test action:
public function sessionTestAction()
{
//Initialize response and headers
$oRequest = $this->get('request');
$a_Headers = array();
if (isset($oRequest->headers->all()['cookie']))
{
$a_Headers['Set-Cookie'] = $oRequest->headers->all()['cookie'];
}
$i_StatusCode = 200;
$oSession = $oRequest->getSession();
$oSession->start();
$s_Response = print_r($oSession->all(), true);
if(!$oSession->has('Test'))
{
$oSession->set('Test', 'Bar');
}
$oSession->save();
$oResponse = new Response($s_Response, $i_StatusCode, $a_Headers);
return $this->render('Bundle:Default:index.html.twig', array('response' => $s_Response), $oResponse);
}
Where that twig file has just {{response|raw}}. It now holds the session for 2 out of 3 of the requests. However, on the third request, it's cleared.
