<h3>Summary</h3>
<div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3>
<p>The session modules make use of HTTP cookies, and as such can fall
victim to Cross Site Scripting attacks, or expose potentially private
information to clients. Please ensure that the relevant risks have
been taken into account before enabling the session functionality on
your server.</p>
</div>
<p>This submodule of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_session.html">mod_session</a></code> provides support for the
storage of user sessions within a SQL database using the
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dbd.html">mod_dbd</a></code> module.</p>
<p>Sessions can either be <strong>anonymous</strong>, where the session is
keyed by a unique UUID string stored on the browser in a cookie, or
<strong>per user</strong>, where the session is keyed against the userid of
the logged in user.</p>
<p>SQL based sessions are hidden from the browser, and so offer a measure of
privacy without the need for encryption.</p>
<p>Different webservers within a server farm may choose to share a database,
and so share sessions with one another.</p>
<p>For more details on the session interface, see the documentation for
the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_session.html">mod_session</a></code> module.</p>

<h2><a name="dbdconfig" id="dbdconfig">DBD Configuration</a></h2>
<p>Before the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_session_dbd.html">mod_session_dbd</a></code> module can be configured to maintain a
session, the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dbd.html">mod_dbd</a></code> module must be configured to make the various database queries
available to the server.</p>
<p>There are four queries required to keep a session maintained, to select an existing session,
to update an existing session, to insert a new session, and to delete an expired or empty
session. These queries are configured as per the example below.</p>
<div class="example"><h3>Sample DBD configuration</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config">DBDriver pgsql
DBDParams "dbname=apachesession user=apache password=xxxxx host=localhost"
DBDPrepareSQL "delete from session where key = %s" deletesession
DBDPrepareSQL "update session set value = %s, expiry = %lld, key = %s where key = %s" updatesession
DBDPrepareSQL "insert into session (value, expiry, key) values (%s, %lld, %s)" insertsession
DBDPrepareSQL "select value from session where key = %s and (expiry = 0 or expiry > %lld)" selectsession
DBDPrepareSQL "delete from session where expiry != 0 and expiry < %lld" cleansession</pre>

<div class="section">
<h2><a name="anonymous" id="anonymous">Anonymous Sessions</a></h2>
<p>Anonymous sessions are keyed against a unique UUID, and stored on the
browser within an HTTP cookie. This method is similar to that used by most
application servers to store session information.</p>
<p>To create a simple anonymous session and store it in a postgres database
table called <var>apachesession</var>, and save the session ID in a cookie
called <var>session</var>, configure the session as follows:</p>
<div class="example"><h3>SQL based anonymous session</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Session On
SessionDBDCookieName session path=/</pre>
</div>
<p>For more examples on how the session can be configured to be read
from and written to by a CGI application, see the
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_session.html">mod_session</a></code> examples section.</p>
<p>For documentation on how the session can be used to store username
and password details, see the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_form.html">mod_auth_form</a></code> module.</p>
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="peruser" id="peruser">Per User Sessions</a></h2>
<p>Per user sessions are keyed against the username of a successfully
authenticated user. It offers the most privacy, as no external handle
to the session exists outside of the authenticated realm.</p>
<p>Per user sessions work within a correctly configured authenticated
environment, be that using basic authentication, digest authentication
or SSL client certificates. Due to the limitations of who came first,
the chicken or the egg, per user sessions cannot be used to store
authentication credentials from a module like
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_form.html">mod_auth_form</a></code>.</p>
<p>To create a simple per user session and store it in a postgres database
table called <var>apachesession</var>, and with the session keyed to the
userid, configure the session as follows:</p>
<div class="example"><h3>SQL based per user session</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Session On
SessionDBDPerUser On</pre>
</div>
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="housekeeping" id="housekeeping">Database Housekeeping</a></h2>
<p>Over the course of time, the database can be expected to start accumulating
expired sessions. At this point, the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_session_dbd.html">mod_session_dbd</a></code> module
is not yet able to handle session expiry automatically.</p>
<div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3>
<p>The administrator will need to set up an external process via cron to clean
out expired sessions.</p>

<p>The <code class="directive">SessionDBDUpdateLabel</code> directive sets the default update
query label to be used to load in a session. This label must have been previously defined using the
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_dbd.html#dbdpreparesql">DBDPrepareSQL</a></code> directive.</p>
<p>If an attempt to update the session affects no rows, the insert query will be
called to insert the session into the database. If the database supports InsertOrUpdate,
override this query to perform the update in one query instead of two.</p>
