#25876 [Com]: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module

ID: 25876 Comment by: reaper at fudo dot org Reported By: golden at riscom dot com Status: No Feedback Bug Type: Session related Operating System: freebsd 4.8 PHP Version: 4.3.9-4.3.10 New Comment: I am experiencing the same thing with apache 2.0.53, php 4.3.10, and linux 2.6 (debian). I notice that there is no real fix, and that this problem is persistent. I will investigate further, but is this a real problem or not? If it is, it should be dealt with. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-02-27 21:11:00] etamme at softhome dot net I am running a FreeBSD 5.3 system and am having the same problem. I checked my php.ini and session.use_trans_sid = 0 is already there. This is a very important bug.. not having sessions renders nearly all our scripts useless. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-02-20 01:00:07] php-bugs at lists dot php dot net No feedback was provided for this bug for over a week, so it is being suspended automatically.

This is not the case - My php.ini has _always_ had use_trans_sid disabled, and yet I am still experiencing the problem ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-02-19 00:46:18] friend at nowhere dot com Set "session.use_trans_sid = 0" in your php.ini. Problem solved! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-02-13 15:32:00] johan at dotco dot co dot za I've had the same problem after upgrading to PHP 4.3.10, in that I also started getting "Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module: user (path: /tmp) " every now and then. The solution was to upgrade to the latest ZendOptimizer here: http://zend.com/store/products/zend-optimizer.php. There is a comment posted about an "incompatibility" with older ZendOptimizer versions on the Zend site. I believe they are refering to this error. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
