What does this error mean

[rulian]

Okay, what I did was I changed servers that I was working on, but they are configured exactly the same, both are w2k, mysql, and php4 all installed the same, but on the new server I get this error message:

Warning: open(/temp\sess_8075c44804233165228bd3934d151e9, O_RDWR) failed: m(2) in shared/quick_check.php on line 2:

line 2 starts a session:

<?php
session_start();

if ( (isset($user1)) AND ($isset($user2)) ) {
if ($user1 == $user2) {$access='yes'; }
else { $access='no'; session_unset(); }}

else {$access='no'; session_unset(); }
?>
it also says write failed, but my sessio save path is set to c:\temps

line two sets a session, if authentication fails, it unset's it. So what's the problem?

You need to use the Unix forward slash in your paths instead of the Win32 backslash. In many cases it doesn't really matter, but in some it does so it's a good habit to get into. Remember that PHP was originally designed for *Nix systems and it sometimes still shows it's heritage.
