Sessions are not working on my new PHP

jaddy

Hi,
I am working on a Windows machine (XP) and I have installed Apache (version apache_2.0.40-win32).
Then I installed PHP (version 4.2.3-Win32) using Apache module dll method (not the CGI binary one).

When I excute my scripts, I get some errors like:

Warning: open(/tmp\sess_b9ac869ec267e87694e264a5c69ddbb3, O_RDWR)
failed: No such file or directory (2) in C:\Apache\htdocs\board\add.php on line 80

When I check out the error line, I find that it is the session:
session_start();

also I realized that the header() function is not working too.

What is wrong????

Thanks

Have you updated php.ini so that the path to the temporary directory is correct? No, because it's still trying to use /tmp.

I have installed PHP (version 4.2.3-Win32) using the Apache module dll method (not the CGI binary one).

How can I edit my configrations, I think in last versions of PHP I used to edit php.ini,
where can I find this file now??

Note: I read in the installation file that I can edit php.ini if I install PHP as a CGI binary.
but there is no mentioning who I can do that in the second way(using Apache module dll).

thx

Make a call to phpinfo() and see what php.ini it's looking for. Your distribution should have a php.ini-dist ... rename it. If no php.ini exists, all default values are used.
