From: unknown at simplemachines dot org Operating system: Windows PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: PHP options/info functions Bug description: session.save_path should default to $TEMP
Description: ------------ I would like to request that, much like upload_tmp_dir, PHP be changed so that session.save_path defaults to the system's default temp directory. The reason for this is simple; countless times, people on Windows machines have problems with sessions because they do not set the path in php.ini. (even with how documented it is.) I mean - I am a developer for forum software, and more than half of the reported installation problems are caused by this one issue alone. Thus, with this change, php.ini-dist and php.ini-recommended could have no path set by default, and it would work fine on both operating systems without any changes. I realize this is basically a dupe of bug 25574, but in that case, the reporter misread the manual. I am asking that it be changed to work. http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=25574 Thank you, Unknown W.
