Fatal error: Call to undefined function tep_session_name()

Question

I am trying to update one of the sites I maintain to the latest PHP and during this, I have come across the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function tep_session_name() in ... /includes/application_top.php on line 83

The code it is referring to is:

 // set the session name and save path   
 tep_session_name('osCAdminID');       
 tep_session_save_path(SESSION_WRITE_DIRECTORY);

But I have looked at the sessions.php file are the function is defined in the below code:

 function tep_session_name($name = '') {
    if ($name != '') {
      return session_name($name);
    } else {
      return session_name();
    }
  }

Any help in identifying the cause would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, E.

You should just rewrite the whole application. How it uses sessions is really bad. — Charlotte Dunois, Aug 30 '16 at 10:27
Holy crap! Is that OS Commerce?! I haven't seen that in the wild for years. — CD001, Aug 30 '16 at 10:35

I'm absolutely sure, that you call this function before you include file with function declaration

This is currently how it is in the code, it looks like it is calling it above using it? // define how the session functions will be used require(DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS . 'sessions.php'); // set the session name and save path tep_session_name('osCAdminID'); tep_session_save_path(SESSION_WRITE_DIRECTORY); – evbeej Aug 30 '16 at 10:30
