Configuring the session_savepath

scuba

Hi,

I'm starting to work with sessions. When I try to use a session i keep getting the message:

Warning: open(/tmp\sess_810a7ae4629fc6836690873b114a04c5, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2)

Warning: open(/tmp\sess_810a7ae4629fc6836690873b114a04c5, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (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 have tried setting the session save path to everything but the write path. Does anyone know what this path is supposed to be ?

Thanks,
Scuba

in php.ini

session.save_path = /tmp

check permissions in the directory

I ended up making another folder directly on my c: called tmp.

This seems to have fixed the problem. Right now I wonder if someone using this site will still encounter errors when using it if they do not have a c:\tmp folder on their system. Or would it just go into their temporary internet files folder?

Any thoughts?

Thanks for the help,
Scuba

the sessions and all related to temporary uses in php, resides in the server; in this case your machine. If I see your web and start a session, the information is saved in your tmp directory, not in mine.

Don't worry, it will work fine.

PS: sorry for my poor english

i have this same problem and i've tried the solution posted in here, but it doesn't work for me.

i'm using windows and i was wondering what changes to make in the configuration so that the sessions work.

any help would be apretiated, thanks in advance.
