Re: Very strange problem with session files

I changed session.save_path to c:\php but it does not make any difference. I tried change it in different ways. I suppose, the problem is more sophisticated. Now, I can connect and work with those scripts BUT nobody else (sic!) can work. All (except me) receive the message "Failed to write session data..". We all work in the same intranet. We all have the same user rights to change contents of c:\temp on the server. More. SOME scripts at the same server CAN work. They deal with sessions in the same way like others. But, some others scripts do not want to work, they cannot write session data (the same error msg). Sometimes I could not work, sometimes I could. Yesterday I could not. Today I can. Others not. Even admin receives error "Failed to write session data...". Is it not strange? -- Jarek > ----- Original Message ----- > Hi, > I think the prlbem is that /tmp is not a valid path under WinNT > Try chaning session.save_path to c:\php\tmp or c:\temp or any other > windows directory. > Best wishes, > Andras. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jarek" <programisci@murator.com.pl> > To: <php-general@lists.php.net> > Sent: Thursday, August 02, 2001 12:29 PM > Subject: [PHP] Very strange problem with session files >> I have WindowsNT4 Serv & PHP 4.0.6/CGI >> >> My php.ini includes: >> (...) >> session.save_handler = files >> session.save_path = /tmp >> session.use_cookies = 1 >> (...) >> >> Problem: When I run PHP script which uses sessions (commands like > session_start() >> etc.) the session file IS created in /tmp BUT cannot be received and >> added to my URL.
