    I am receiving this notice in WordPress health page. I am using latest WordPress version.

    “A PHP session was created by a session_start() function call. This interferes with REST API and loopback requests. The session should be closed by session_write_close() before making any HTTP requests.”

    When i deactivate the plugin error goes away. Please provide the solution. Thanks.

    Hi @kalim99,

    Could you confirm us if you are only using the core plugin or if you have any of the add-ons installed? You can also share us the debug.log file messages to send this to the developers.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    I am only using the core version. After that error i deactivated the plugin and reactivated next day and the error was gone. I don’t know the log file’s location. But on advanced tab my log location is set to default. If you need log file please tell me the location so i can show it to you. Right now there is no log file inside wp-content folder. May be because of define( ‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, false );

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    My current finding are after activating plugin.

    1. Slower website speed
    2. Database connection issues
    3. Savings are disabled (in the dashboard) Error

    Here is my debug.log file

    debug.log

    Thanks.

    I’m having this issue too.
    Searched through all my plugins to look for session_start(), then began deactivating each plugin that used the function. Narrowed it down to Awesome Support being the culprit.

    Was using the Auto-close, EDD, and Power Pack add-ons but the issue is still present when all Awesome Support add-ons are deactivated.

    The issue seems to stem from your inclusion of WP Session Manager, which hasn’t been updated for 2-years.

    Hi @voltronik,

    Thanks for this information. I sent it to the developers so that they can check the latest version of the WP Session Manager and/or what it’s needed to be done to fix this issue.

    Yes this issue is still there even after latest update

    I think Awesome Support has some incompatibility when hosted on a windows server. Is there a known issue when hosting on a windows server? like any loopback issue? becasue of a windows server everything runs very slow as compared to a web linux server.
    when installed on a windows server…I contacted two different experts on this and they both have pointed out the same issue that the developer has to look at some scripts – Is awesome support running cron jobs every minute or is there any other issue if Awesome Support is run on a windows server it works very slow
