Sander van den Akker	Thursday 23 June 2011 5:29:45 am I am having a hard time with the admin interface. I have to log in really often, despite using the 'remember me' checkbox and changing several settings which are currently as follows: [Session] ActivityTimeout=14400 RememberMeTimeout=2592000 SessionNameHandler=custom SessionNamePrefix=eZSESSID Can anyone give me some hints on how to debug issues like this? I have been scratching my head over this for quite some time now but I find it hard to solve ;) eZ Publish certified developer http://auth.ez.no/certification/verify/392313
Sander van den Akker	Thursday 23 June 2011 5:41:36 am I expect the problem to lie elsewhere, since it happens on certain pages while using the interface. There almost can't be a session timeout, as I'm browsing. I just get redirected to the login page. What could this be? eZ Publish certified developer http://auth.ez.no/certification/verify/392313
Nicolas Pastorino	Thursday 23 June 2011 6:54:42 am Hi Sander, What version of eZ Publish are you using ? Asking this to find out if the session handler in use is the PHP-based one. What can happen is that php-based sessions can not be opened anymore due to a full disk. Not very likely, but worth checking. Other check that could be useful : do you get the session cookie after logging-in, and do you see your user, from the back-office, as having an active session (Setup > Sessions) ?

Sander van den Akker	Thursday 23 June 2011 8:15:59 am Thanks for the info. The site is on 4.4, server is running php 5.2.9, and I do receive the eZSESSID cookie. The setup > sessions page however returns " Your current session handler does not support session administration." Weirdness! eZ Publish certified developer http://auth.ez.no/certification/verify/392313
Sander van den Akker	Thursday 23 June 2011 8:26:28 am I see 4.4 requires PHP 5.2.14. Might that be it? eZ Publish certified developer http://auth.ez.no/certification/verify/392313
Nicolas Pastorino	Thursday 23 June 2011 8:38:44 am Hi Sander, The php-based session handler was introduced as the default in Fuji - 4.4. Given the message you get ("Your current session handler.." ), file-based session management is in use. Scanning the PHP changelogs from 5.2.10 to 5.2.14, i stumble upon the following interesting stuff : "Fixed segfault on invalid session.save_path." "Added protection for $_SESSION from interrupt corruption and improved "session.save_path" check" I would definitely give the PHP upgrade a try, if i were you. Cheers, PS : check session.save_path in php.ini, and make sure it is storing sessions in a place where there is enough disk-space or write rights.

André R.	Saturday 25 June 2011 2:02:48 am 5.2.9 also have a array sorting bug that affects eZ Publish, so unless your distro has patched it it is the worst possible version :) As for the issue I can't see anything related being fixed so this might be file system / php related. eZ Online Editor 5: http://projects.ez.no/ezoe \|\| eZJSCore (Ajax): http://projects.ez.no/ezjscore \|\| eZ Publish EE http://ez.no/eZPublish/eZ-Publish-Enterprise-Subscription @: http://twitter.com/andrerom
