Hi !
I set 
  php_admin_flag session.auto_start on 
in httpd.conf !
I wanted to turn it of in a VirtualHost section with
  php_flag session.auto_start off !
In php.ini there is :
session.auto_start off
 
phpinfo() shows for session.auto_start
LocalValue : on
MasterValue : off

I seems to if i cannot change a value that?s been set by php_master_value. 
Alex.

Do you happen to run Apache 2? If so, try a snapshot from http://snaps.php.net as this might have been fixed.

You propably have misunderstood what the master/local values mean. Better question is: Does it work? (are session started automatically?)

I use apache 1.3.26. 
And, yes maybee I have misunderstood this command. But after re-reading docs I understand it the same way.
Session autostart works. 
The master values in phpinfo() are only set by php.ini.
Shouldn?t they be set with php_master_* ?
And why can?t I overwrite a set php_master_value with php_value in a virtualhost setting ?!

I can change a php_value in a virtualhost section if I don?t have set this value with php_master_value.
Why ?
 [2002-09-26 20:02 UTC] sniper@php.net 
From manual page http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php


php_admin_value name value

                               This sets the value of the specified variable. "Admin" configuration settings can only be set from within the main Apache configuration files, and
                               not from .htaccess files.

Thnx. Sniper.
I know that. And I use that.
To clarify my problem :
If I set a php_admin_value or php_admin_flag in httpd.conf outside a virtualhost directive, I cannot change it within a virtualhost directive.
At least it doesn?t work for me. 
As it seems that nobody understands my problem, and no other has this problem I think its better to close this.
I?ll find the solution for me alone.

A virtual host configuration section is for PHP in the "PER_DIR" access level, which is the same as the .htaccess level is.

That should be said in the manual page too..

I also think that the documentation is very unclear about the differences between php_* and php_admin_* settings -- how exactly, for example, does one determine when to use a php_admin_ directive as opposed to a straight php_ one?  And if I use the "wrong" one, what happens?

And a prominent link from the configuration.php page to the ini_set page, referring to the table of what can be set where, would be very good, too.

Cheers!

Mike
