Title: YABB 1.5.5 pb!
Post by: Jok-R on May 27, 2004, 02:00:50 PM
Hello! I've move my old forum on a new web hosting, and I have this message on top of my page:

Warning: session_start(): open(/var/www/free.fr/4/3/joker.benj/sessions/.sess_8015ee8778c6544d9c0689bdf447f345, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in /var/www/free.fr/4/3/joker.benj/forum/index.php on line 78

I hadn't this error before! What may I do to solve it!

If I install SMF, I have a similar one!

Sorry to come back on a old version, but I'm novice in php and sql, and moreover I'm French!!!

Thanks!

Sounds to me like php on your host is misconfigured. The directories where sessions are stored on your server doesn't exist.

OK, and how have I to do to solve it? Must I create a directories and where, how???

I prefer to install correctly yabb 155 before upgrade with SMF!

Ummm... it actually looks like they may be storing the session in a folder you can access. What happens if you make a folder called "sessions" in your root directory? (ie the same directory as the "forum" directory is in).

I'm not an expert at this but I thought the sessions folder should be outside of the public folder.. I'd like someone else to comment on this too - but in the mean time make the directory and see if it helps.

I have just create a directorie "sessions" in the same folder as "forum", and I haven't any error message any more!
So thank you for your precious help!
Now I will upgrade to SMF!!!
