I have a problem with the CAS authentication library in CI3. In CI2.x worked perfectly but with the CI3, the session has been re-designed and it seems to have problems with this library.
This is the error I get:
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Runtime Notice
Message: session_start() [function.session-start]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. Please use the date.timezone setting, the TZ environment variable or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'Europe/Paris' for '1.0/no DST' instead
Filename: CAS/Client.php
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Error
Message: session_start() [function.session-start]: Failed to initialize storage module: user (path: C:\Windows\Temp)
Filename: CAS/Client.php
Here is my config.php settings:
$config['sess_driver'] = 'database';
$config['sess_cookie_name'] = 'ci_session';
$config['sess_expiration'] = 7200;
$config['sess_save_path'] = 'ci_sessions';
$config['sess_match_ip'] = FALSE;
$config['sess_time_to_update'] = 300;
$config['sess_regenerate_destroy'] = FALSE;
Note that I'm using a table called 'ci_sessions' in my database to store the session as stated in the CI3 user manual. It works perfectly but once I load the CAS library I get the previous error in the session_start()
line.
CAS library extra info https://github.com/eliasdorneles/code-igniter-cas-library Someone wrote a code for easily integrate phpCAS into Codeigniter 2.X but it is no longer mantained nor updated to CI3.
For me, it is mandatory to use the CAS authentication method, any ideas on how to fix this error or use another alternative CAS client?
Thank you very much.
