Session error message

leatherback

Hi All,

Like half of the problems here, mine is also on sessions.

I use a routine described in one of the earlier threads to test sessions. (Code below) This works fine on the webserver. Locally however, I get this error:

Warning: open(/tmp\sess_1883712c848779fce64f8b7b71ad604c, O_RDWR) failed: m (2) in c:\phpdev\www\public\one.php on line 2

What does this mean? (The session data are not passed, I know that much) It looks like it cannot find the right directory to write the session data to. This is probably a setting(?) Where do I set this, and how?

Page one.php:
<?
session_start() ;
session_register(name);
$_SESSION['name'] = 'ednark';
print '<a href="two.php">two</a> ';
?>

Page two.php:
<?
session_start() ;
print $_SESSION['name'];
print '<a href="one.php">one</a>' ;
?>

Thanks!

Solved.

For the curious:
In php.ini you set the directory for temp internetfiles, or it uses the syste default. But microsoft, in eternal wisdom, has instaled my system without creating the standard temp directory (According to settings in windows %systemroot/temp).

It showed that in Php as being the tmp directory. hence:
open(/tmp\

After creating a folder temp in the systemroot the problem was solved.
