note 111451 added to session.configuration

Being unable to find an actual copy of mod_files.sh, and seeing lots of complaints/bug fix requests for it, here's one that works. It gets all its parameters from PHP.INI, so you don't have the opportunity to mess up: #!/bin/bash # # Creates directories for PHP session storage. # Replaces the one that "comes with" PHP, which (a) doesn't always come with it # and (b) doesn't work so great. # # This version takes no parameters, and uses the values in PHP.INI (if it # can find it). # # Works in OS-X and CentOS (and probably all other) Linux. # # Feb '13 by Jeff Levene. [[ $# -gt 0 ]] && echo "$0 requires NO command-line parameters. It gets does whatever is called for in the PHP.INI file (if it can find it).
