Description:
------------
After migrating web server platform from win2000 to freebsd periodicly
this message appears in logs:
PHP Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module. in
index.php on line 5
PHP Warning: Unknown(): A session is active. You cannot change the session
module's ini settings at this time. in Unknown on line 0
I'm using now FreeBSD 4.8 and Apache 2.0.47
On the line 5 in index.php just a call session_start();
here's part of my config in php.ini:

session.cache_expire 180
session.cache_limiter nocache
session.cookie_lifetime 0
session.cookie_path /
session.cookie_secure Off
session.entropy_length 0
session.gc_divisor 100
session.gc_maxlifetime 1440
session.gc_probability 1
session.name PHPSESSID
session.save_handler files
session.save_path /tmp
session.serialize_handler php
session.use_cookies On
session.use_only_cookies Off
session.use_trans_sid On
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
session_start();
session_register("m");
Expected result:
----------------
not to see this message in logs, see the page expected
Actual result:
--------------
PHP Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module. in
index.php on line 5
PHP Warning: Unknown(): A session is active. You cannot change the session
module's ini settings at this time. in Unknown on line 0
and we get just a blank page instead of seeing of what actually expected
