Problem with redirections

Hi,
I have a site using XOOPS 2.2.4 and every time there is a redirection ( for example when a user is logged in or the user posts a message ) the site add a "?" to the redirection URL. So if the URL was

http://www.mysite.com/modules/news/index.php

it becomes

http://www.mysite.com/modules/news/index.php?

With the question marks on the URL string I have some problems because even when the user is redirected to download a file the site append this "?" and the file isn't found.

What can I do?

Thanks for your help!

Is the definition for XOOPS_URL correct in mainfile.php?

Are you using any kind of URL mapping, such as redirection in an .htaccess file?

I'm just making wild guesses. I use 2.2.4, and haven't seen this problem.

No, I don't even have a .htaccess file.
I have checked the mainfile but it's correct.
Any other guess?

I think the problem is here in te functions.php file in the redirect_header function.

if (defined('SID') && (! isset($_COOKIE[session_name()]) || ($xoopsConfig['use_mysession'] && $xoopsConfig['session_name'] != '' && !isset($_COOKIE[$xoopsConfig['session_name']])))) {
        if (!strstr($url, '?')) {
            $url .= '?' . SID;
        } else {
            $url .= '&'.SID;
        }


Anyway, SID it's not appended to $url.

My supposition was exact. That is the code snipet responsible of the problem. I have made a workaround disabling personalized sessions. Is there any disadvantage from this?

A long time after I looked again to this and found a simple solution. I modified the code like this

if (defined('SID') && (! isset($_COOKIE[session_name()]) || ($xoopsConfig['use_mysession'] && $xoopsConfig['session_name'] != '' && !isset($_COOKIE[$xoopsConfig['session_name']])))) {
if (SID){
            if (!strstr($url, '?')) {
                $url .= '?' . SID;
            } else {
                $url .= '&'.SID;
            }
}
}


So I added a little check to see if SID has a true value. This way the "?" is not added if SID is an empty string.
