Summary08076: Unable to respond to survey when using PostgreSQL and database sessions
Description

When attempting to complete a survey, no responses are saved. Where a question is mandatory, the page simply refreshes, losing the responses given. If there is only one group/page, a warning about not having completed a mandatory question is given first, whereas if there is more than one group, the page refreshes when next is clicked, and the responses are lost.

A minimal survey that demonstrates this is attached.

Responses are saved correctly if database sessions are turned off, or we switch to MySQL (which works correctly with database sessions).

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Install LimeSurvey 2.00+ (build 130708) using a PostgreSQL database
  2. Uncomment the configuration for sessions within application/config/config.php, as follows:
    'session' => array (
    'class' => 'system.web.CDbHttpSession',
    'connectionID' => 'db',
    'sessionTableName' => '{{sessions}}',
    ),
  3. Create a new survey, and add a single group and question. Make completing the question mandatory.
  4. Execute the survey and attempt to complete it
Additional Information

There is no indication of any other issue within the admin interface when using database sessions - it appears to function normally. It is only when a survey is execute that a session related issue occurs.

TagsNo tags attached.

This seems to be a bug in the Yii framework/session table setup. Data column in session table needs to be bytea but this does not work with the current Yii version used. Moving target to 2.05.
