The message means that you have started a session with
session_start()
in which further down in the code you are usingini_set()
to manipulate the session module. If you are manipulating the session module, it should be done before a session is started and active.I think you are newbie to framework concept and OOP.
You don't need this line in admin.php
When you load session library it's constructor does these for you.
Message: ini_set(): A session is active. You cannot change the session module's ini settings at this time
I had same error message sometime ago , By default Code-igniter will write to file (C:\xampp\tmp) in my case. But I want it to write to database instead.
In your autoloader you might have had something like this:
By default setting in the config/config.php session configurartion look like this:
The documentation stated that to use database instead of file you should first create a table in application database.
Go back to the config/config.php and change
$config['sess_driver'] = 'files';
to$config['sess_driver'] = 'database';
Like so I thought everything should be fine but I got the error Message: ini_set(): A session is active. You cannot change the session module's ini settings at this time
My Solution was to first run the
session_destroy();
Then change session name and table name
My config look like this :
Save everything and after refresh the page all cleared, no error message showing
