ID: 29460 Comment by: cq92 at hotmail dot com Reported By: kylewong at southa dot com Status: No Feedback Bug Type: Session related Operating System: linux kernel 2.6.1 PHP Version: 4.3.8 New Comment:
Probably the easiest way to fix this problem is to create a batch file to empty the sessions folder (*.*) regularily and run it using task scheduler (windows servers). That way it will automatically dump cache folders or session folders at regular intervals, say 4-8 hours daily.
