Be part of JetBrains PHPverse 2026 on June 9 – a free online event bringing PHP devs worldwide together.
I want to do minimal changes as possible so can anyone help me in that For Example :: when user logs in i have session session lifeTime 120 ie. 2 hours and in my env Session_Driver is database as there is session table in mysql for maintaing the session and i want if anyone logs out including the automatic session expire when user gone i want to create a logout log in my database for that user
In my Config.php its 'driver' => env('SESSION_DRIVER', 'file');
So I visit your site and load one page. Then I turn off my computer.
What happens next?
I can tell you, absolutely nothing.
The session is only 'expired' when I visit again after 2 hours. However, the session cleanup may have run before then and removed any stale entries.
So, what exactly are you wanting to record?
@Snapey whenever the user session expires i want to make a logout log in my db so that i can say hey you have logged out due to session expired so what’s the best way to do that?
@gauravs456 but you won't know that the session expired. You will just know that at some point in the future the session is no longer valid
