session cache control errors.

[adamt222]

When i try to use this code
<?php
session_start();
session_cache_limiter('nocache');
$cache_limiter = session_cache_limiter();

//this should prevent page frm getting cached
?>

I get the following 3 errors (web host is
running PHP 4.11 as CGI on WIN NT server.)

1)
Warning: open(E:\PHP\sessiondata\sess_17d63100ad09b8381f9aaa6231c5bd9d, O_RDWR) failed: Permission denied (13) in E:\inetpub\ie-

2)open(E:\PHP\sessiondata\sess_17d63100ad09b8381f9aaa6231c5bd9d, O_RDWR) failed: Permission denied (13) in Unknown on line 0

and
3)Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (E:\PHP\sessiondata) in Unknown on line 0<br

****** right now the file does not
really do anything, it has simple
HTML stuff way after the opening code.
THe page starts with the above mentioned
code snippet <?php ....

The above code works fine on a PWS
at home using Win 98 with PHP 4.03

If anyone can be of help, please
email me at

Hi Adam,

I think you have to change your access rights for your "E:\PHP\sessiondata\ " directory.

Can access rights be changed easily?
It is not my web server,
it belongs to the current host
of my internet pages.

The directory E:...
is on their server, not my local hard disk.

If it is simple, would you know how it
can be done?

Note: the web host has NOT A CLUE
as to how to admin their
PHP setup (and i am not sure they
even care about it either.)

(sorry if that sounds silly or redundant juggler.
)
thanks for your advice.

Hi Adam,

if i was you, i would send right now a e-mail to your provider and ask them, if they already hosted servers at all :-).

All you have to do is to send them a mail and tell them to change the access rights.

If they are not able to do it :-) change your provider.
