how i can fix this error in laravel about subdomain - php

I use a test domain in laravel and one subdomain is in use. Everything works fine,
test.com and user.test.com
but, Login function does not work on test domain
I have verified that the session file is generated at stoage / sessions
when I done login, it does not cognize my session. The login function works well on localhost url. how i can fix that?
i'm done config like this below
config / session.php
domain => ".test.com"
And if I set up like above, can I share login information between two domains?

Clear the cookies for the site and then try to log in again. Or If the issue still persists then try to change Session Cookie Name in config/session.php

Laravel: can't login after removing SESSION_DOMAIN from environment variable

In production environment, Session domain is set into .env file like this:
SESSION_DOMAIN='example.com'
Now, I need to deploy the same codebase into different subdomain, i.e: staging.example.com
If I remove the SESSION_DOMAIN='example.com' from .env file, all user wont be able to login anymore, because of session cookies from browser.
What is the solution now, if I dont want any interruption in the real user?

Share session values in subdomains Laravel 5.4

I am working on a project in which i want to share the session values among subdomains. for example i set the session values in abc.com and now i want to access those values in following subdomains first.abc.com and second.abc.com. These domains are handled using same code on a server. I have tried following method but it does not work for me.
In app/config/session.php i changed the domain value to following.
'domain' => '.abc.com'
Then cleared all the browser cookies and the session from laravel storage directory but it does not work.
Please suggest something where i am doing mistake.

Setting Sessions for Multiple Subdomains

I'm following the following URL to set up sessions for user logins to multiple subdomains.
PHP Multi-Domain Sessions; ini_set Not Working?
I manage to get it working using the following format:
ini_set('session.cookie_domain','.domain.com');
session_start();
The problem now is that this only works at times on my subdomain.
When it doesn't work, sessions are not detected on xxx.example.com but are active on www.example.com.
I use a common login page from my main domain http://www.example.com/login so if sessions are detected on the main site, the login page wouldn't work as i do a header redirect to the main page whenever sessions are detected.
It will only work when i clear my browser cache, resetting all the sessions and try logging in again.
Anyone knows where the problem might be?
This affects my site overall User Interactivity. Any help will be appreciated.
You can try this code:
session_name("mss17");
session_set_cookie_params(0, '/', ".domain.com");
session_start();

PHPSESSID Cookies on Sub-domains are having conflicts with each other

We are having some issues with PHP Session Cookies not allowing us to log into our *SugarCRM** application which is open source PHP application.
The problem is we have the same application installed on 2 sub-domains like below...
Main site
www.domain.com
Dev site
dev.www.domain.com
Now after logging into one, it will not allow you to login to the other!
Please view the image below to see the Cookie problem...
In the image above you can see that there is 2 PHPSESSID Cookies competing for the Session!
If I now delete one of them, it allows me to login as normal without an issue!
Because this is SugarCRM, I am hoping I can resolve this issue without making really any core file modifications to the application. But if I have to, then we will.
So does anyone have any ideas on a good solution?
Right now my idea for a "Nasty Dirty Hack" which I really do NOT want to have to do. It is to make a button on the login form, this button will use JavaScript to clear/delete the PHPSESSID Cookies but again I would really like to find a proper solution.
If anyone has any ideas, please share? Thank you
UPDATE
Thanks for the answers so far. Please do take into acocunt that this is not a simple PHP application that I built where I can easily do code changes. THis is SugarCRM which is a massive large application with thousands of files
Try to setup in .htaccess parameter on subdomain
php_value session.cookie_domain .domain.com
or use in php code, but before "session_start()"
ini_set('session.cookie_domain', '.domain.com' );
Use
session_set_cookie_params
to set the session from the subdomain, on the principal domain.
Try to use function (http://php.net/manual/en/function.session-set-cookie-params.php):
session_set_cookie_params ( $lifetime, $path, $domain, $secure, $httponly)
And set one $domain = '.domain.com'
Or if you setting session cookie manually by setcookie, then setting the same domain too
Its actually not the domain you need to change, but the "session name" (name of the cookie parameter). Both apps seem to be using the default "phpsessid" and need to be made to differ, otherwise the apps will see eachother sessions, see the wrong session, or try to unserialize classes only defined in the other project.
You need to change the cookie parameter its storing the session ID in. It can be controlled from an environment variable (php.ini, .htaccess, etc.): http://us1.php.net/manual/en/session.configuration.php#ini.session.name
This way you can have multiple PHP sessions on the same domain. For example if you had example.com/sugarcrm and example.com/foo You could have sugarCRM store it's session ID in a cookie param called "sugarsession" (instead of the default phpsessid)
It has been a while since I had this issue but I think all you have to do is write each instances session file to a different directory by editing the config.php in each SugarCRM's file system and change the line
'session_dir' => '',
to point at a different directory.

automatic session expiration

I am facing a strange scenario. basically on my every web page i am doing
session_start();
if(!isset($_SESSION['login']))
header("Location: login.php");
to ensure every user has logged in first. I am working in chrome and what happens is if I login to my web application and open any page it works fine. At the same time if, in another tab, I login to my hosting server, I am logged out of my web application. If I login to my application again, I am logged out of my hosting server!!
What am I doing wrong? is there a problem the way I am checking or setting the session variable?
I am setting the session as follows:
//if authentication successful
session_start();
$_SESSION['login'] = "1";
I have a very similar problem, and I think this happens just because two sessions with the same name, in the same place of the same domain can't coexist.
Maybe a solution should be to use session cookies. You can set a cookie just for a folder and not for the whole domain. This way I think you can manage 2 sessions at the same time, but I'm not sure.
Try this:
session_start();
setcookie(session_name(), session_id(), 0, '/public/');
Where /public/ might be the specific folder where your site is located, or the application path (thanks Paul for pointing out this).
Then you will check if session is set:
$session_cookie =
isset($_COOKIE[ini_get('session.name')]) ?
$_COOKIE[ini_get('session.name')] :
null;
Probably this won't work, since the other session might be "stored" in the root folder of your web application. But if you are able to do the thing above also for your hosting server, you should resolve your problem.
You can also try to set a different name for the session in your web application.
Hope this helps.
I think you'll find the cause is that both hosts have the same network name e.g. test.www.example.com and www.example.com
Just use a different network name for the test machine and it should work or make sure you explicitly use non-overlapping values for session.cookie_domain
