[PHP] session handling From: \[Inf\] F!RE-WALL (claninfinity <email protected>)
Date: 03/28/01

Every time I want to initiate a session i get this:

Warning: open(/tmp\sess_b18426d4011c38e033bd0ed54bd2d2f1, O_RDWR) failed: m
(2) in e:\webserver\phptest\page1.php on line 2

Warning: open(/tmp\sess_b18426d4011c38e033bd0ed54bd2d2f1, O_RDWR) failed: m
(2) 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 run an Apache webserver under Windows and I have the latest version of
PHP. I looked up the "session.save_path" in the php.ini file and it sais:

[Session]
session.save_handler = files ; handler used to store/retrieve data
session.save_path = /tmp ; argument passed to save_handler
                                    ; in the case of files, this is the
                                    ; path where data files are stored
session.use_cookies = 1 ; whether to use cookies
session.name = PHPSESSID
                                    ; name of the session
                                    ; is used as cookie name
session.auto_start = 0 ; initialize session on request startup
session.cookie_lifetime = 1814400 ; lifetime in seconds of cookie
                                    ; or if 0, until browser is restarted
session.cookie_path = / ; the path the cookie is valid for
session.cookie_domain = ; the domain the cookie is valid for
session.serialize_handler = php ; handler used to serialize data
                                    ; php is the standard serializer of PHP
session.gc_probability = 1 ; percentual probability that the
                                    ; 'garbage collection' process is
started
                                    ; on every session initialization
session.gc_maxlifetime = 1440 ; after this number of seconds, stored
                                    ; data will be seen as 'garbage' and
                                    ; cleaned up by the gc process
session.referer_check = ; check HTTP Referer to invalidate
                                    ; externally stored URLs containing ids
session.entropy_length = 0 ; how many bytes to read from the file
session.entropy_file = ; specified here to create the session
id
; session.entropy_length = 16
; session.entropy_file = /dev/urandom
session.cache_limiter = nocache ; set to {nocache,private,public} to
                                    ; determine HTTP caching aspects
session.cache_expire = 180 ; document expires after n minutes
session.use_trans_sid = 1 ; use transient sid support if enabled
                                    ; by compiling with --enable-trans-sid
url_rewriter.tags =
"a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=fakeentry"

What's wrong with /tmp ? Where's that map located? Do I need to change the
entry? Should I create the dir? If so, where?
