Has anyone else had trouble with openemr suddenly just dumping you back to the log in screen while you are trying to work with the program? I ahve had it happen to me several times over the last few weeks with all of the machines that I have been testing it on. I am running it under xampp 1.4.16 and have used 2.8.2-dev. I have gotten this undocumented feature when I have used Firefox and IE6 and it is quite annoying.
might be,
I had a problem with the linux garbage collector taking away session info that was placed on the /tmp folder, therefore, losing session data,
try changing php tmp folder away from /tmp (good idea anyway)
or change garbage collector settings
If still having problems, then give us the OpenEMR version, package (ie. source vs. XAMPP package vs. ubuntu package vs. appliance), and your operating system.
Thanks Brady,
I had actually tried to increase the max_execution_time as I was getting page time out etc along with the session time out… I replaced the settings of php ini and also followed http://kb.mediatemple.net/questions/235/%28gs%29+PHP+Sessions+do+not+work+as+expected and it seems to work for now. I am on shared host so it wont let me restart the apache web server… it seems to work for now. thanks again for the help:)
