Here is the Localsettings.php code...

session_save_path( '/absolute/path/to/sessions/folder' );

Usually something like, /home/youraccountname/thefolder

Like Platonides said, make sure it is writable by your web server. I have one host I deal with which is a bit twitchy, so I have to use this setting to specify the path.

Oops you misunderstood me. I know the session path isn't stored in 
localsettings.php. But you can point to the session path in localsettings.

Guess it is for those without access to php.ini. Personally mine are stored 
outside of the public_html file.

The session path is not stored in localsettings.php

Brandon, ensure that
a) You have cookies enabled.
b) The webserver can write in the folder specified by session.save_path
in php.ini
