Magento 2 duplicate PHPSESSID cookie when using session_start() in custom php script












4















I have custom php script that is called with ajax. It must be stand-alone script to save spent resources because it is called 1-3 times per each page load. Init Magento for each ajax call would cause server overload.



In that stand-alone script I use session so I start it with session_start().



Problem:
Some customers (in rare cases) reported that it removes products from cart and starts new session when ajax call to this script is loaded. I could not reproduce the problem on my side, but I suspect this is the problem:
enter image description here



As you can see in the image, it will create another PHPSESSID cookie. I read that modern browsers should not care about the leading dot, but here it will duplicate cookie.



Does anybody have any hint why this happens?

          I have posted the solution on my own question.
          Magento 2: User cant logged in into to account page, no error showing!



          I got the solution for it, i installed the php chat plugin on the server and embed into magento 2 website. the issue was coming from the cookies that both of them was generated on the same url. when you look at the PHPSSID into the inspect element , it will show duplicate PHPSSID and one of them was conflicted with origenal one. Solution - i have created the subdomian and copy the chat code into the subdomain. that completely solve my problem.

            I resolved the problem by renaming session inside custom script:
            session_name('UNIQUE_NAME');. This works because I don't need to share session between Magento and custom script.
