From: jeff at macloue dot com Operating system: Slackware 13.0 PHP version: 5.2.11 PHP Bug Type: Session related Bug description: Default save.session_path and mm_create() warning
Description: ------------ php -n throws a warning: PHP Warning: PHP Startup: mm_create(0, /session_mm_cli1000) failed, err mm:core: failed to open semaphore file (Permission denied) in Unknown on line 0 Expected result: ---------------- This bug was previously submitted as #49401. Despite marked bogus it can be very annoying and also it doesn't seem logical to make the default built-in configuration to throw a warning on most/all the platforms. I also did some investigation on that libmm used by PHP session extension and found that creating the semaphore file is not a must on many platforms but it is kind of recommended and fail-safe way. I don't see any big trouble if libmm's semaphores are created in $TMP or /tmp directory instead of "blank" - at least it will make PHP _safer_ on many platforms without adding much risks. Of course the best way imho will be to make some ./configure switch for setting default session.save_path value or smth like that. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=49658&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49658&r=mysqlcfg
