不同文件夹的会话管理

Question

I am working on an application which contains two different portals (admin and members). http://localhost/app/ is used for the members login and http://localhost/app/admin is used for admin's login.

When I log in into members and admins portal both works fine but if I logout from one portal another portal logged out automatically.

I checked that the session file created in /tmp/ directory stores the sessions information for both the portals in a single file which causes the above problem. The work around I think is to save the session information of both portals in different directories. I searched a lot for this but didn't get any resolution :(

Please help. Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

You can destroy session elements individually instead of just calling session_destroy(); .

For example, use $_SESSION['logged_a'] for the admin and $_SESSION['logged_u'] for the user.

And then, depending on where you logout from, do unset($_SESSION['logged_a']) or unset($_SESSION['logged_u'])

I hope this helps! Good luck!

PHP sessions work on a per domain basis as they use cookies. If you want to have separate login systems for each directory your application will have to deal with that. A working approach would be to store the session id in a database along with a reference to which portals the session is logged in to. When a user logs out of one portal, rather than destroying the session, delete the record showing that the session is logged into that portal.
