New – ACTIVE PHP SESSION, REST API ERROR Site Health

Hello,

I have come across a problem and have found the solution also, just wanted to share fix:

Error: An active PHP session was detected” critical warning in wordpress. rest api.

Fix:

Open and find: /wp-content/plugins/free-vehicle-data-uk/classes/FreeVehicleData.php

Search for:

if( !session_id() ){
session_start();
}
return self::$Instance;
}

REPLACE WITH:

if (session_status() == PHP_SESSION_NONE) {
session_start([
‘cookie_lifetime’ => 86400,
‘read_and_close’ => true,
]);
} return self::$Instance;
}
