Hi everyone! I would like to know if I need to empty from time to time the directory where the session files are stored. I'm running windows nt4.0 and Apache. Thanks in advance.
Hi Ivan That would probably be a good idea yes. On linux and unix based OS's sessions are usually stored in /tmp which gets periodically cleaned of old junk files. Depending on how your windows machine is set up, you might need to clean the dir every now and again, i dont remember anything that did this in the NT4 OS, but its been a long time since I used it. That said if you have allot of space it could probably go without cleaning for years :) Cheers Neil
