Session Timeout takes 2 clicks

php session timeout

[cphillips]

Hello,

I have read the other articles here related to session timeouts, but this seems weird to me:

My session timeouts dont redirect to the login page until the user clicks the second time.

Basically it seems like: after the session expires the first page the user goes to does not realize the session has actually expired.

I have set my php ini file session.gc_probability to 100% (for testing) and everything else should be default settings.

Any Ideas? I hope this makes sense.

Thanks for your time!

If this is the first user firing the gc process then that makes sense. Have you tried starting a session in another browser or on another pc to see what happens in the same situation after somebody else has triggered the gc process?
