[PHP] Session problems: Warning: write failed: Disk quota exceeded

2002-08-21 Thread Beau Hartshorne

Hi,

Recently, my php app has started to throw these warnings:

Warning: write failed: Disk quota exceeded (122) in Unknown on line 0

Warning: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the
current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in Unknown on
line 0

I narrowed it down to this code:

?php
session_start();
session_register('anything');
?

(A test file containing only that will throw those two warnings.)

The php version is 4.2.2. This script is running in a shared hosting
environment. My guess is that the ISP has misconfigured php, and has not
set the appropriate permissions to the /tmp directory.

Does this make sense? Or is there something that I've missed?

Thank you,

Beau

G'day,

Most likely they haven't pointed it to the right place (or maybe
permissions?  Doubt it would give this error for that).

Session information is usually stored in /tmp on the hosting server (and on
unix servers /tmp is actually a disk partition with a set size).

There are a lot of applications on a hosting server that might use /tmp to
store temporary files, so I suppose it is possible that something has filled
/tmp up and PHP simply can't write to it because there is no where to write
to!

Call your host is my advice.
