sessions problem: Warning

Warning: open(/tmpsess_36c0ed957aee30c101b3d40847c9ad90, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in e:wwwindex.php on line 8

Your session directory in the php.ini is wrong. Check your php.ini, and set the right directory

Thanks! But how do I know what it should be?

I tried

session.save_path="Crogram FilesZendtmp"

and

session.save_path="Crogram FilesZendtmp"

- This directory contains a bunch of files of nomenclature similar to "sess_03796f43ceb58a273cc6f3d22474e99d"
but both attempts at correction were to no avail. And I restarted apache each time. Any ideas?

use the phpinfo() function to see if your settings are actually loaded. maybe it loads php.ini from another directory than you assume.... (you can check that also using phpinfo() )

simply create a file phpinfo.php on your webserver

Doh!

Thanks, there are a number of strange variables there, for example, the php.ini directory is c:winnt, which does not exist... I'm going to try a clean install and see if I can reset this... I think a utility I tried may have modified the settings. It turned out to be in French, so I got rid of it...

Well, turns out I only had one php.ini file on my system and it was not the one that was used. So in effect I did not have a php.ini file at all. That's all better now.

Thanks for the help!
