Status: Closed
Bug Type: Session related
Operating System: freebsd 4.8
PHP Version: 4.3.3
New Comment:
This issue is becoming quite the thorn in my side. We are hosting
about 30 sites that are having this problem with the Session_Start()
Function. I was hoping that moving my clients to a new server would
eliminate this issue but it did not. It is definately a PHP issue.
I also don't understand why this issue/bug report was closed. It is
far from resolved.
Please enlighten me.
Thanks,
Darrel

We have had this problem with various sites running off the same server
(Apache/1.3.29 - Unix Server). A recent upgrade to 4.3.6 has not
resolved the problem.
Same sites worked fine on other servers running recent versions of
PHP.
Error message is sporadic and disappears with one or two refreshes.
With versions prior to 4.3.6 it was necessary to restart Apache to
clear the problem - that doesn't seem to be the case since the
upgrade.
Suggest reopening this bug report.

Hi,
had the same error, added the following line before starting the
session:
ini_set('session.save_handler', 'files');
this fixed it in my case...
I don't have any idea why this works, got it from

Problem :
Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module

The solution (fingers crossed) was to clear the session.save_path
directory - it got thousands of session files there.
Hope it helps someone out there.

The above solution works fine :)

I just experienced this problem with php 4.3.3
The solution (fingers crossed) was to clear the session.save_path
directory - it got thousands of session files there.
Hope it helps someone out there.
