Using Sessions in Oracle

I am using php 4.1 that is run on redhat 9. I am using Oracle 9i.

Here is the question. I am trying to maintain a user session in an oracle database. I am experiencing some problems with storing the session ID in the database. For one reason or another The session ID will not bind properly.

php Code:

Original - php Code

 
function UserLogon($db, $username)
{
 $errorMsg = "";
    $stmt = @OCIParse($db,"insert into SAPNET_WEBSITE.SAPNET_SESSIONS (WEB_SESSIONS_ID, USERNAME, IP_ADDRESS) values (:session, :userName, :ipaddr)");
    //$stmt = @OCIParse($db,"insert into SAPNET_WEBSITE.SAPNET_SESSIONS (IP_ADDRESS, USERNAME) values (:ipaddr, :userName)");
    if (!$stmt)
        $errorMsg = GetDBError($db);
    else
    {
        session_start();
        $sessionID = session_id();
        $ID=$sessionID;
        $ipAddress = GetRemoteIP();
        OCIBindByName($stmt,":userName", $username);
        OCIBindByName($stmt,":session", $ID);
        OCIBindByName($stmt,":ipaddr", $ipAddress);
        if (!@OCIExecute($stmt))
            $errorMsg = GetDBError($stmt);
        OCIFreeStatement($stmt);
    }
    return  $errorMsg;
}

Is there are specific way to set up the table that I don't know about. Ummm... The table info is

SAPNET_SESSIONS table
WEB_SESSIONS_ID char(32)
IP_ADDRESS varchar(24)
USERNAME varchar(20)

Any Info would be great.
Thanks

RE: Using Sessions in Oracle

look at the function session_set_save_handler().

that is the proper way of storing session data in databases. there is also an example for mysql i think but it should be easy to port it to oracle (if you know oracle that is ;))
