[PHP] Session_Start Problem (Fatal Error)
I'm using Mambo Open Source CMS to run a site I'm building, and seem to have a problem logging into the Administration Tool. It comes up with: Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module. in /home/hetbweb/public_html/administrator/index.php on line 64 I've looked at various things that could cause this, and finally contacted my server support who said: It's a PHP bug which they still havent fixed as of yet, as soon as the fix becomes available we will update PHP. It may be worth looking on the mambo forums as there may be a patch to resolve this for your script. Does anyone know about this, and if so, is there a fix or work around or anything?

[PHP] Session_start() problem
Hey all, I'm working out of a book teaching myself PHP4 here and I've
got this code from a login web page...
[begin code]
session_start();
if(!isset($userid)) {
login_form();
exit;
}
else {
session_regisister(userid, userpassword);
if(!$username) {
session_unregister(userid);
session_unregister(userpassword);
echo Authorization failed. .
You must enter a valid userid and password
combo. .
Click on teh following link to try
again.BR\n;
echo A HREF=\$PHP_SELF\login/ABR;
echo If you do not have login, please contact
Operations to obtain one.br\n;
exit;
}
else echo welcome, $username!;
}
[end code]
The page puts up a for with fields for username, password etc. nothing
crazy, but when I open the page I get the following error displayed
(before data is entered into the form and subitted).
[begin error]
PHP Warning: session_start():
open(/tmp\sess_d7d909aa6e85cf5489a50f6e42f03b12, O_RDWR) failed: No such
file or directory (2) in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\auth_user.php on line 54 PHP
Warning: Unknown(): open(/tmp\sess_d7d909aa6e85cf5489a50f6e42f03b12,
O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in Unknown on line 0 PHP
Warning: Unknown(): Failed to write session data (files). Please verify
that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in
Unknown on line 0
[end error]
Not sure what I did wrong except to think that PHP is trying to write
the session id file to a directory that doesn't exist /tmp. This is
running on a MS IIS server. If I'm correct in my assessment, where do I
set the default location for session data?
Thanks,
Jeff

Re: [PHP] session_start() problem
Did you make sure everything below is BEFORE the html tag? Also you can just set the variable $sesionvar like this: $sesionvar = fulanito; instead of $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[sesionvar] = fulanito; lines in the acceso.php file: 27 session_name(primera); 28 session_start(); 29 session_register(sesionvar); 30 $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[sesionvar] = fulanito; what I get in the browser: Warning: Cannot send session cookie - headers already sent by (output started at /public_html/php/acceso.php:8) in /public_html/php/acceso.php on line 28 Warning: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /public_html/php/acceso.php:8) in /public_html/php/acceso.php on line 28 some help please thanks in advance -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
