I would like to have some help in CodeIgniter 3. Every time I login and redirect to the index page, session is lost.
Here is my code:
Controller:
<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Secretariat extends CI_Controller {
public function __construct(){
parent::__construct();
$this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));
$this->load->model('SecretariatModel');
$this->load->model('IndiRegModel');
$this->load->model('RoomModel');
$this->load->model('BuildingModel');
$this->load->model('BilletModel');
$this->load->model('BatchRegModel');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->load->library('session');
}
public function secretariatLogin(){
if ($this->session->isSecretariat){
redirect('secretariat/index', $data);
} else{
$data['title'] = 'PACSA - Philippine Association of Campus Student Adviser';
$this->load->view('include/toppage', $data);
$this->load->view('include/defaultnavbar', $data);
$this->load->view('pacsa/slider');
$this->load->view('secretariat/secretariatLogin', $data);
$this->load->view('include/bottompage');
}
}
public function signin(){
$secretariat = array(
'sec_email' => $this->input->post('sec_email'),
'sec_password' => sha1($this->input->post('sec_password'))
);
$user = $this->SecretariatModel->getSecretariat($secretariat);
//print_r($user->name);die();
if(!$user == null){
$newdata = array(
'sec_id' => $user->sec_id,
'sec_name' => $user->sec_name,
'sec_lastname' => $user->sec_lastname,
'sec_email' => $user->sec_email,
'sec_password' => $user->sec_password,
'sec_status' => $user->sec_status,
'sec_address' => $user->sec_address,
'logged_in' => TRUE,
'isSecretariat' => TRUE
);
$this->session->set_userdata($newdata);
redirect('secretariat/index');
} else {
$data['title'] = 'PACSA - Philippine Association of Campus Student Adviser';
$data['message'] = 'Invalid email or password';
$this->load->view('include/toppage', $data);
$this->load->view('include/defaultnavbar', $data);
$this->load->view('pacsa/slider');
$this->load->view('secretariat/secretariatLogin', $data);
$this->load->view('include/bottompage');
}
}
public function index(){
$data['title'] = 'PACSA - Philippine Association of Campus Student Adviser';
$id = $this->session->sec_id;
var_dump($id);
echo die();
$this->load->view('include/toppage', $data);
$this->load->view('include/secretariatnavbar', $data);
$this->load->view('pacsa/slider');
$this->load->view('secretariat/index', $data);
$this->load->view('include/bottompage');
}
}
So after redirecting to the index page, I want to verify if there is a session involved. I tried to echo the id and the name of the user but I get a null value.
i just solved my problem turns out i have old version of codeigniter 3 i upgrade my CI to the latest version available on the website . thank you all for the help
Have you loaded your session library
this->load->library('session')
Or via autoload
$autoload['libraries'] = array('session');
also check your php.ini file for this option:
session.auto_start=1
Your problem doesn't come from the session itself.
Try to:
Comment the redirect method and add a var_dump($user) instead to see if your $user is correctly set. The problem could come from your $user object which contains null values for id and name.
Change if(!$user == null){ by if ($user != null) { or if ($user) {.
If you are using PHP 7.1+/7.2 then this problem will happen. Change PHP version to down (to check if it works).
Try this
$this->output->profiler(true);
To see if session is really set and also check if the library is loaded
Here is another answer
function __contruct(){ parent::__contruct(); //more stuff here }
In the construct functiom
