solved: with @ Mihai Iorga code i added ob_start();
The answer is
It took me some time to figure this out: My php-file was encoded in UTF-8. And the BOM prevented header location to work properly. In Notepad++ I set the file encoding to "UTF-8 without BOM" and the problem was gone.
I had same application on my localhost and on a shared server. On my localhost the redirects worked fine while on this shared server didn't. I checked the phpinfo and I saw what caused this:
While on my localhost I had this:
So I asked the system admin to increase that value and after he did that, everything worked fine.
I use following code and it works fine for me.
if(!isset($_SESSION['user'])) {
ob_start();
header("Location: https://sitename.com/login.php");
exit();
} else {
// my further code
}
Check if below are enabled
bz, mbstring, intl, ioncube_loader and Json extension.
Remove Space
Correct : header("Location: home.php"); or header("Location:home.php");
Incorrect : header("Location :home.php");
Remove space between Location and : --> header("Location(remove space): home.php");
It should be Location not location:
header('Location: index.php');
In my case i created new config file with function 'ob_start()' and added this to my .gitignore file.
just use ob_start(); before include function it will help
Create config.php and put the code it will work
The function ob_start() will turn output buffering on. While output buffering is active no output is sent from the script (other than headers), instead the output is stored in an internal buffer. So browser will not receive any output and the header will work.Also we should make sure that header() is used on the top of the code.
I use this
header("Location:comments.php");
And it solve out..
Try adding ob_start(); at the top of the code i.e. before the include statement.
for me just add ob_start(); at the start of the file.
ob_start();
should be added in the line 1 itself. like in below example
<?php
ob_start(); // needs to be added here
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
// your code goes here
</html>
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
//code to save data in db goes here
}
header('location:index.php?msg=sav');
?>
adding it below html also doesnt work. like below
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
// your code goes here
</html>
<?php
ob_start(); // it doesnt work even if you add here
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
//code to save data in db goes here
}
header('location:index.php?msg=sav');
?>
