ID: 49503 Comment by: jd at cpanel dot net Reported By: mike at fuelsaver-mpg dot com Status: No Feedback Bug Type: Session related Operating System: Linux 2.6.9-023stab048.6-enterpr PHP Version: 5.2.10 New Comment:
Still present in 5.2.11. This looks like it's identical to bugs 49401, 49427 and 49433 which were incorrectly marked as bogus. This happens when the mm session module tries to initialize itself. You don't need anything configured to use MM to hit the problem. As this particular bug illustrates, even a valid session.save_path setting wont avoid running into the same spurious warning.

I un-commented the php.ini line: "session.save_path = ", created a directory that could be written to, and this resolved that particular error. However, I'm still getting the following errors, albeit on a less frequent basis. I got 53 of these in one day however: [07-Sep-2009 00:24:46] PHP Warning: PHP Startup: mm_create(0, /home/fuelsa5/tmp/php/session_mm_cgi32010) failed, err mm:core: failed to open semaphore file (File exists) in Unknown on line 0 There are files being created in the directory, so it's not a permissions issue. Per the warning, a duplicate file is attempting to be created. Expected result: ---------------- I expect not to get so many error messages. I'm not even sure what's breaking. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=49503&edit=1
