Hiya,

I receive the following errors when accessing the SoU upload script:

Code: [Select]

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cookie - headers already sent by (output started at /is/htdocs/yadda_yaddaU/www/upload/SFUConfig.php:227) in /is/htdocs/yadda_yadda/www/upload/upload.php on line 68

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /is/htdocs/yadda_yadda/www/upload/SFUConfig.php:227) in /is/htdocs/yadda_yadda/www/upload/upload.php on line 68
Now, I read the FAQ, plus some other threads on this forum and the PHP site, so I know what this means and why it happens.
But the real puzzling problem is that I did not integrate SoU into any own scripts; it is run completely standalone and out-of-the-box, as it were. I only customized it in SFUConfig.

I looked at the offending lines in the two scripts but could not figure out a way to prioritize the session_start command.
Would be very grateful indeed if someone could point me to a way to fix this. Thank you.

Could you post the two lines here? Can't help you without seeing them.

By "offending lines" I meant the lines specified in the error messages, which are:
SFUConfig.php: 227
upload.php: 68

Since, as I said, I did not alter the source code at all, those lines should be the same as in the original files distributed by you.
Here's what I get when I open those files in a PHP editor:

SFUConfig 227:

<p align="center" class="header">'.SCRIPT.'</p>';

upload 66-68:

//password protection area..
if (SFU_PROTECT == true) {
   session_start();

Here are the error message again (because they are tiny and hard to read when in between code tags):

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cookie - headers already sent by (output started at /is/htdocs/yadda_yaddaU/www/upload/SFUConfig.php:227) in /is/htdocs/yadda_yadda/www/upload/upload.php on line 68

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /is/htdocs/yadda_yadda/www/upload/SFUConfig.php:227) in /is/htdocs/yadda_yadda/www/upload/upload.php on line 68

To fix this problem, make a small change in upload.php

Line 68, named: session_start();
should be moved to:
Line 64, on the line before html_header();

Not sure what this will do for non-password protected setups, but it works if you are password protecting the uploader.

That area should look like this:

Code: [Select]

//start the HTML formation
session_start();
html_header();

//password protection area..
if (SFU_PROTECT == true) {
   
   if (isset($_POST['SFU_Protect'])) {

Thank you very much indeed.
