Hello, What is the setting of session.save_path in php.ini?
This is from the default php.ini file:
; NOTE 1: PHP will not create this directory structure automatically.
; You can use the script in the ext/session dir for that purpose.
; NOTE 2: See the section on garbage collection below if you choose to
; use subdirectories for session storage
;session.save_path = /var/lib/php4
I just purged my configuration and did a clean install with apache2
on sarge. Hmmm. It apears to work here defaulting to /var/lib/php4
Does (or did) your /var/lib/php ownership and permissions
look like this?
seesink:/var/lib# ls -la | grep php4
drwx-wx-wt 2 root root 4096 2005-05-08 11:32 php4
seesink:/var/lib# ls -la php4
total 16
drwx-wx-wt 2 root root 4096 2005-05-08 11:32 .
drwxr-xr-x 61 root root 4096 2005-05-08 11:22 ..
-rw------- 1 www-data www-data 7172 2005-05-08 11:32
sess_0546c683cb23498c7e6cf76374d19b27
And does it work if you change it to that?
Did you upgrade your php from an older version or did you do a clean
install?
Cheers,
Remco.
