Session problems

[Anon]

I am trying to get sessions working, but with the following code:

<?php
session_start();
?>

I get this error message:

Warning: open(/tmp\sess_07a581412f8dff2dd8c0b7b693f0ad09, O_RDWR) failed: m (2) in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\test\session_test.php on line 3

Warning: open(/tmp\sess_07a581412f8dff2dd8c0b7b693f0ad09, O_RDWR) failed: m (2) in Unknown on line 0

Warning: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in Unknown on line 0

I don't have a clue what all this means, any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi!

When you run a session on a server you need a 'tmp' folder where the session stores information about the users logged in.

I think you can very easily fix the error you're getting by creating a folder called 'tmp' on the root of the hard drive in which the server is installed.

That should work just fine... if not try creating the same 'tmp' folder on your web server's root...

I hope this works... 🙂
