session cache limiter error

I am using my own php form and have added a Security question and honeypot feature to the form (from yr contact form solution pack) and have the following error on the page :

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home/afrika/public_html/lendersquotes/html/includes/FinanceHeader.php:4) in /home/afrika/public_html/lendersquotes/html/forms/WAVT_ValidatedForm_PHP.php on line 3

Link is: Enquiry_form.php

I have used your pdf instructions to extract the relevant code for these features and have rechecked them. I do not have sessions on this site so not sure why this is happening.
I have tried forums to find a solutions to no avail.
thanks for help

It looks like you have to move you include refrence:

/home/afrika/public_html/lendersquotes/html/includes/FinanceHeader.php

lower on the page. It is causing problems above the other code running on the page.

I am having the exact same problem. My error code is:

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home/reflec3/public_html/Contact/Contact Webmaster/ContactForm102/ContactForm_GMC/contactWebmaster.php:2) in /home/reflec3/public_html/Contact/Contact Webmaster/ContactForm102/ContactForm_GMC/WA_ValidationToolkit/WAVT_ValidatedForm_PHP.php on line 3


The link to my site is:

contactWebmaster.php

I have looked for the line of code to move, but did not find it. Do I look in contactWebmaster.php ?

yes, look at line contactWebmaster.php page on line 2 and the other page on line 3. Most likely the problem is solved by an update in the first location, but it depends on what you find on those lines.

Thanks for your reply. I don't know php well, so I'm going to ask your advice on what to do with the lines of code.

Line 2 of contactWebmaster.php is:

<?php require_once('WA_Globals/WA_Globals.php');?>


Line 3 of WAVT_ValidatedForm_PHP.php is:

session_start();

Now what do I do with these lines of code?

It probably means you either have a blank line or space character in that first line.

highlight the line before and after, is there a blank line or space character in the code?

Thanks, I had a blank line at the beginning. It's amazing what a little white space can do! I wish I had known about that, but I bought the contact form solution in the first place because I didn't know php. Problem solved.

This is what I am getting... What is the issue I am running into with this script... Any help would be great. The site is contact.php

You page link seems to be broken. The error you are getting about the headers already being sent is almost always due to some white space characters outside of the php blocks that are interpreted as output.

Since the error says the output is occurring on line 1 of your contact.php this is the page that you should check for issues. Look for a space or return that is outside of the php block at the top of the page.

I have seen before where having the BOM signature on the page causes this error to occur. You can check on this setting by doing a save as for the file, in the save as dialog box there should be a check box for the option of including the BOM signature on the page. You should make sure that this option is not enabled.

Sorry about that link it is contact.php... I checked the link and I also checked the BOM signature... To no avail I can still not figure it out...
