Site health status: Critical issue “An active PHP session was detected”

    Hi,

    I am having an issue with Perfect Survey. In my site health status, I get the following critical performance issue :

    “An active PHP session was detected

    A PHP session was created by a session_start() function call. This interferes with REST API and loopback requests. The session should be closed by session_write_close() before making any HTTP requests.”

    When Perfect Survey is disabled, the issue disappears.

    Actually, I was able to fix this problem by changing line 137 in PerfectSurveyPostType.php in my staging environment but I want your confirmation that I am not breaking anything before applying the fix to production :

    @session_start([‘read_and_close’ => true]);

    Of course, best of all would be a quick plugin update from your team but if you are too busy, could you please at least tell me whether changing this line is ok or risky.

    Love your work so keep it up! ??
    Thanks in advance,

    Lavos

    On my site, your plugin also produces errors:
    1. Sesja PHP zosta?a utworzona przez wywo?anie funkcji session_start(). To koliduje z REST API i ??daniami sprz??enia zwrotnego. Sesja powinna zosta? zakończona przez session_write_close() przed wykonaniem jakichkolwiek ??dań HTTP.

    2. REST API to jeden ze sposobów, w jaki WordPress i inne aplikacje komunikuj? si? z serwerem. Przyk?adem u?ycia tego mechanizmu jest ekran edytora blokowego, który u?ywa REST API do wy?wietlania i zapisywania twoich wpisów i stron.
    Zapytanie REST API nie powiod?o si? z powodu wyst?pienia b??du.
    B??d: cURL error 28: Operation timed out after 10001 milliseconds with 0 bytes received (http_request_failed).

    can you fix it?

    I have same problem and my hosting told me it caused by mobile accelerating plugin however I found problem fixed after deactivate Perfect Survey plugin. Hope it be fixed soon.

    @rafaljun B??d generuje która? z wtyczek. Zainstaluj “String Locator” podaj w wyszukiwaniu frazy: “session_start()”, a nast?pnie “session_write_close()” i sprawd? po ?cie?kach katalogów, które wtyczki za to odpowiadaj?. Staraj si? wy??czy? tak? wtyczk? lub zamieni? j? na inn?. U mnie b??d generowa? plugin “Captcha Code”, ale wiem, ?e cz?sto pojawia si? te? przez Woocommerce, a tego ju? raczej nie wy??czysz je?li prowadzisz sklep i trzeba nauczy? si? z tym ?y? ?? Cho? naprawd? wp?ywa to na wydajno?? strony.
