normally this happens only as plong a php-script has a session open - the same client with the same session-id can not make another request until session_write_close() happened in the first script or it is finished
since session-cookies are domainwide this could explain PARTLY the problem
Probably, but if, then indeed only partly:
I also can't load other web pages of the same domain (at least some of them, didn't check with all)
and that describes exactly what i said
You deleted the more important part of the quote, as it is only a side issue, that I can't load other web pages of the same domain - more important to me is that I can't load Roundcube at all (and why I ran into this situation at all).
becaue what i said
if there is some active session with a script running forever on the server this is the symptom - but usuaully this should not happen
If you're saying that an still open session is the problem (see above) - will this session stay open forever...?
Yesterday it took only 10 mins or so until I could load Roundcube again, now I'm waiting almost 20 hours already.
10 minutes is normal 20 hours is not normal, but on the other hand if there are ajax requests hanging around it is not impossible
And if I send the laptop into hibernation, wake it up again hours later, open a new browser tab - does this session then still have the same session ID as the one hours before? Sounds pretty unlikely to me.
no, the session on the server should have timeouted
if you can open a page on ANOTHER DOMAIN on the same server then it is a open session file which can only be accessed by one connection at the same time
Hmm. I'm not sure I get you right, but why can I open Roundcube then in the InPrivate mode of IE8? Because it's a new browser session (= a new browser window)?
session != browser window
session is at least a id sent via cookie switching to "private mode" will stp sending this cookie
This might indeed be the case, as I just realize if I open a new browser window (in standard mode, NOT in InPrivate mode), I can load Roundcube there as well.
internet explorer is a beast years ago as i used windows a saw IMSIE with different windows having different sessions affecting in some weird error cases even popups from web applications with all sort of wondering effects
So how can I get this apparently still open session get closed? Shouldn't it close automatically after some time (session_lifetime in main.inc.php)?
yes and no
if there is some ajax thing speaking in backround with the server it could keep alive the session on both sides - difficulty to debug and it makes me scary because i am webdevloper, but we advise our customers to not use MSIE since years because many hard to explain troubles
