I am developing an ASP.NET Web Service:
# MyWS.cs
[WebMethod(EnableSession = true)]
public bool TryLogin(string user, string pass)
{
if (/* user validation is successful*/)
{
Context.Session["user"] = user;
return true;
}
else
{
Context.Session.Abandon();
return false;
}
}
[WebMethod(EnableSession = true)]
public string RetrieveSomething()
{
if (Context.Session["user"] == null)
throw Exception("User hasn't logged in.");
/* retrieve something */;
}
This ASP.NET must be consumed by a PHP Web site I am developing as well:
# ws_client.php
function get_soap_client()
{
if (!isset($_SESSION['client']))
$_SESSION['client'] = new SoapClient('MyWS.asmx?WSDL');
return $_SESSION['client'];
}
function try_login($user, $pass)
{
return get_soap_client()->TryLogin(
array('user' => $user, 'pass' => $pass))
->TryLoginResult;
}
function retrieve_something()
{
return get_soap_client()->RetrieveSomething(
array())->RetrieveSomethingResult;
}
# index.html
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit']))
{
session_start();
require_once('ws_client.php');
if (try_login($_POST['user'],
$_POST['pass']))
{
session_write_close();
header('Location: /main.php');
exit();
}
?>
<html> <!-- login form here >
# main.php
<?php
session_start();
require_once('ws_client.php');
// Here I get the Exception "User hasn't logged in.", even though
// the user has logged in and the web service has already been notified.
echo htmlspecialchars(retrieve_something());
?>
What could be wrong with either my Web Service or my PHP site?
