`session_register()` is deprecated long ago. There is no need to register variables now. — Shankar Narayana Damodaran, Apr 23 '14 at 09:24

session_register() has been deprecated see manual for further

use variables with $_SESSION['var'] = "value"

For more info :- How to fix the session_register() deprecated issue?

and error causing on server with different php version

try

session_start();
$_SESSION["sbjbs_username"] = 'value';
$_SESSION["sbjbs_userid"] = 'value';

and so on

session_register("sbjbs_username");

This is not the most correct way to do.. the function session_register() has been deprecated a long time ago... you should do this:

$_SESSION['sbjbs_username'] = 'something';

Comment this `session_register("sbjbs_username"); session_register("sbjbs_userid"); session_register("sbjbs_memtype"); session_register("sbjbs_emp_username"); session_register("sbjbs_emp_userid");` in your Sessions-php File and see if you get the same error.. – stackrocha Apr 23 '14 at 09:38

session_register() has been deprecated and you no longer need to register variables You can easily use $_SESSION['variablename'] for session variables.

Example:

$_SESSION["ID"]=$id;
$_SESSION["name"]=$name;

See an guide here.
