I am combining OpenCart and CakePHP Modules and I want to use session value of CakePHP in OpenCart session of customer ID.

$this->Session->write('customer_id',$id);//in cakephp
$_SESSION['customer_id'];//in open cart

Value of customer_id comes correct but not shown in session of OpenCart, is there any method to do so?

  • Most likely your sessions are completely separate - which probably means that the cookie domain for both sessions is different and/or they are using differently-named session cookies. – AD7six Apr 21 '15 at 12:57
  • so how do i make a common cookie domain for both of them ?? –  Apr 22 '15 at 03:07
  • Well, by applying how you'd do that to any two applications, to both your CakePHP app and opencart.

CakePHP may be creating a multi-dimensional array on $_SESSION. I would do a print_r($_SESSION); to see where exactly the customer_id is ending up, or use CakePHP's debug() function debug($_SESSION);

  • Debugging CakePHP's session data will at most give you CakePHP's session data - [the problem is likely different](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29761656/merging-session-values#comment47676116_29761656). – AD7six Apr 21 '15 at 12:57
  • Another way for debugging in CakePHP: `$this->log($variable_name, 'debug');` If you use DebugKit toolbar, simpler than before: `debug($_SESSION)`. – Vy Do Apr 24 '15 at 11:38
