Why is PHP session_destroy() not working?
I tried to destroy all session variable by using the session_destroy() method, but after using this method, the values are not destroyed.
Why is session_destroy() not working?
Is there any other way to destroy the session in PHP?
if (isset($_SESSION['LAST_ACTIVITY']) && (time() - $_SESSION['LAST_ACTIVITY'] > 1800))
{
session_destroy();
s开发者_开发问答ession_unset();

Perhaps is way too late to respond but, make sure your session is initialized before destroying it.
session_start() ;
session_destroy() ;
i.e. you cannot destroy a session in logout.php if you initialized your session in index.php. You must start the session in logout.php before destroying it.
After using session_destroy(), the session is destroyed behind the scenes. For some reason this doesn't affect the values in $_SESSION, which was already populated for this request, but it will be empty in future requests.
You can manually clear $_SESSION if you so desire ($_SESSION = [];).
If you need to clear the values of $_SESSION, set the array equal to an empty array:
$_SESSION = array();
Of course, you can't access the values of $_SESSION on another page once you call session_destroy, so it doesn't matter that much.
Try the following:
session_destroy();
$_SESSION = array(); // Clears the $_SESSION variable
I had to also remove session cookies like this:
session_start();
$_SESSION = [];
// If it's desired to kill the session, also
// delete the session cookie.
// Note: This will destroy the session, and
// not just the session data!
if (ini_get("session.use_cookies")) {
$params = session_get_cookie_params();
setcookie(session_name(), '', time() - 42000,
$params["path"], $params["domain"],
$params["secure"], $params["httponly"]
);
}
// Finally, destroy the session.
session_destroy();

Actually, it works, but you also need to do $_SESSION = array(); after the session_destroy to get rid of $_SESSION variables. However, avoid doing unset($_SESSION) because that makes sessions useless.
Well, this seems a new problem for me, using a new php server. In the past never had an issue with sessions not ending.
In a test of sessions, I setup a session, ran a session count++ and closed the session. Reloaded the page and to my surprise the variable remained.
I tried the following suggestion posted by mc10
session_destroy();
$_SESSION = array(); // Clears the $_SESSION variable
However, that did not work. I did not think it could work as the session was not active after destroying it, so I reversed it.
$_SESSION = array();
session_destroy();
That worked, reloading the page starting sessios and reviewing the set variables all showed them empty/not-set.
Really not sure why session_destroy() does not work on this PHP Version 5.3.14 server.
Don't really care as long as I know how to clear the sessions.
session_destroy() is effective after the page load is complete. So in the second upload, the session is terminated. But with unset() you can also log out from within the page.
if you destroy the session on 127.0.0.1 it will not affect on localhost and vice versa
It works , but sometimes it doesn't (check the below example)
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['name']="shankar";
if(isset($_SESSION['name']))
{
echo $_SESSION['name']; // Outputs shankar
}
session_destroy();
echo $_SESSION['name']; // Still outputs shankar
Weird!! Right ?
How to overcome this ?
In the above scenario , if you replace session_destroy(); with unset($_SESSION['name']); it works as expected.
But i want to destroy all variables not just a single one !
Yeah there is a fix for this too. Just unset the $_SESSION array. [Credits Ivo Pereira]
unset($_SESSION);
Add session_start(); before !Doctype Declaration
<?php session_start(); ?>
<!doctype html>
<html>
<body>
<?php
if (isset($_SESSION['LAST_ACTIVITY']) && (time() - $_SESSION['LAST_ACTIVITY'] > 1800))
{
session_destroy();
session_unset();
}
?>
</body>
</html>
