I just upgraded my hosting plan, and now the user session isnt' working anymore. Users can't access the mebership area when they login, and here are the errors that are shown when opening my website:
Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: open(/home/content/15/9277415/tmp/sess_enersdnbm88g5detjemgnptu47, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in /home/content/15/9277415/html/include/config.php on line 14

Warning: Unknown: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct () in Unknown on line 0
In config.php line 14 we have the session variables:
if(!session_id()) session_start();
if (!isset($_SESSION)) $_SESSION=array();
Does anybody have any idea why is this happening or how to fix it? These errors werent showing before the hosting plan upgrade.
Make sure that the directory /home/content/15/9277415/tmp exists and is writable by the webserver.

Following errors come after uploading site to live:
Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]:

Warning: Unknown: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify

On the local system the site is working fine. The above errors come only after it is uploaded.
how do I get them resolved?
PHP can't save it's session files. In spite of you're using wp the problem isn't related with it, it's a server problem.
Depending on the type of server you should:
Ask hosts support to fix it OR
Edit the session.save_path var in your php.ini
Hope it helps!
newb here, new to working with localhost in OS X.
I am running a MAMP stack on OS X. My session test file returns a series of warnings which I believe is due to the inability to write to the sessions folder which I have not been able to set to 0700.
I've checked for:
white space
file path http://localhost/sessions/
folder name (sessions)
I believe the problem is a permission issue. I am looking to be able to write to my localhost directory session folder. To do this I need to set the permission of the folder to 0700. I am hoping to find an solution that I can replicate with my limited level of expertise at this time.
This is the code:
<?php
ini_set('session.save_path','/htdocs/sessions');
session_start();
$_SESSION['test'] = "If you can read this, sessions are working!";
print $_SESSION['test'] . "<br>";
print "Session ID is: ". session_id()."<br>";
?>
These are the errors which only appear when i run local:
Warning: session_start(): open(/htdocs/sessions/sess_d1c5ef5a18bb844bfc667a0fc911191f, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/review/itc240f/a_070-adminer/sessionTest.php on line 3

/htdocs/sessions
does it exist? And, why would you choose to use a root directory in MacOSX? Perhaps you should map it to your user folder.
/Users/username/htdocs/session
I have multiple sites hosted on a server and most of them use sessions when users login.
for example, i have a session variable $_SESSION["loggedin"] = 'yes' if the users login is successful.
this is the same on multiple sites but if i login to say 2 sites at the same time one of them will stop working and display these errors:
Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: open(/tmp/sess_8f7b4997fbfdd08855a410ae4638821f, O_RDWR) failed: Permission denied (13) in /home/theboaty/public_html/new_site/admin/authorisation.php on line 2

Note: authorisation.php checks for the loggedin session variable to see if the user is logged in or not
I have much the same problem because I use a custom user handler that takes sessions.
I found that logging onto two different related sites on the same server using the same browser window but with different tabs there was crosstalk.
If this is not acceptable, I suggest you rename your session variables by site vis:
$_SESSION['site1']['isloggedin']=1;
i'm having some issues with PHP sessions. I'm pretty new to PHP so my apologies if i'm being completely stupid.
I have a login.php file that once the user name and password has been checked etc it has the following code:
if($pass === $row2['PSWD']){
session_start();
$_SESSION['test']="hello";
mysql_close($con);
header("Location: page.php");
}else{
die('Wrong password');
}
then on page.php I have the following at the very top, about the tag:
<?php
session_start();
session_register(); //just in case...(should not be needed)
echo "Result:".$_SESSION['test'];
?>
And all I get at the top of the page is "Result:"
Any ideas? As from everything i've been reading it should be as simple as this?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT:
My error logs are showing:

You need to put exit(); after your header redirection, otherwise you have just loaded two pages of content into 1 page.
source: https://stackoverflow.com/a/3023479/710827
after header location give exit();
I get a session error which I did not have before which is strange.

I have only session_start(); in my index.php at line 4. How can I fix this?
Your /tmp/ folder isn't writable. Make it writable.
chmod u+w /tmp/
You can test it with is_writable(session_save_path()).
Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: open(/tmp/sess_6768c4a8b1cff40d24a3a87de701c865, O_RDWR) failed: Read-only file system (30) in /home/public_html/ctcms/index.php on line 4
It looks like /tmp is on a read-only file system. This is not normal. Tell your sysadmin/hosting provider to have a look at it; the machine may have a serious problem.
If the machine is yours, check the logs for any errors related to the file system and try to remount the disk in read-write (mount -o remount,rw /dev/yourdevicehere).
Yuo can't write on /tmp/
Make it writable and redo the operation.
Moreover, remember that session_start() have to be the first operation that you do on the page.
Take a look: php manual
This was a known bug in version(s) of PHP . Depending on your server environment, you can try setting the sessions folder to 777:
/var/lib/php/session (your location may vary)
I ended up using this workaround:
session_save_path('/path/not/accessable_to_world/sessions');
ini_set('session.gc_probability', 1);
You will have to create this folder and make it writeable. I havent messed around with the permissions much, but 777 worked for me (obviously).
Make sure the place where you are storing your sessions isn't accessible to the world.
This solution may not work for everyone, but I hope it helps some people!
