Description Peter Colijn 2004-09-15 00:34:14 UTC

I just upgraded to php-5.0.1/mod_php-5.0.1 today, and now my scripts (notably Gallery, also installed by Portage) that need session_id() don't run any more. I checked php --info and it says --enable-session was used to configure, but somehow my scripts can't find session_id() at runtime.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Emerge apache-2.0.50-r2 on ~x86 system.
2. Emerge php-5.0.1 and mod_php-5.0.1 on ~x86 system.
3. Emerge gallery-1.4.4_p2 on ~x86 system.
4. Try to view any of the gallery pages from a browser.

Actual Results:  
I get "Call to undefined function session_id()"

Expected Results:  
I expect the PHP code to execute properly producing valid HTML output displayed
by my browser.

emerge info output:

I have correctly configured my Apache and mod_php (with -D PHP5), as other PHP
apps (WikkiTikkiTavi) work fine.

This can be closed IVLD.

You need to compile (mod_)php with use=session support, see 
emerge -pv mod_php for use variables and use.desc or gentoo use docs online for a detailed description of use variables.

There is stuff fixed in 5.0.2, and you need to USE=session.
