I'm also running FreeBSD 4.8 - same problem.
My /tmp is on a separate partition, and has plenty of space... a
restart (even a graceful one) seems to fix the problem.
As a temp fix, I heard someone say that the sites they had using custom
session storage handlers did NOT exhibit the problem, so I think I may
try an auto-prepend file containing such an override on a server-wide
basis.
Any comment on this idea? Please copy my email.
Thanks.

I'm having the same problems. FreeBSD 4.8, php 4.3.4.
THIS IS GETTING VERY annoying. It quit doing it for a month, then
almost to the exact day it just started up again this morning at 1AM
and hasn't stoppd. Apache 2.0.47 as well. Restarting apache seems to do
the trick for about a minute, then it starts popping up again. I've
already had 20 customers call this morning saying they cannot place
orders and they give me the error.
I've check my apache access logs as well as the php log.
I get this error several times:
[18-Feb-2004 10:15:39] PHP Warning: Unknown(): A session is active.
You cannot change the session module's ini settings at this time. in
Unknown on line 0
Almost always following it is this srror:
[18-Feb-2004 10:15:51] PHP Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to
initialize storage module. in /mydir/myfile.php3 on line 2
All that is in myfile.php3 is session_start();
These errors started happening after moving to a new sever. NO PROBLEMS
in the past, was using Apache 1.3.8 I believe and PHP 4.3.0.
PHP People, WHAT ARE CAUSING THESE ERRORS????

We're also getting this bug.
Apache 1.3.27
PHP 4.3.2
Solaris 8 (rather than BSD) as the OS
It happens intermittently, reloading the page _usually_ clears it.
Different users report different things. I've never been able to
duplicate it on my browsers (tested IE and Mozilla, no difference), a
colleague gets it occasionally, users reporting the problem to us get
it one time in three in the worst cases.
/tmp is writeable and has a huge amount of free space.
Multiple users have reported the problem to us, the minimal code sample
already reported is the only common part. We are attempting to find if
there is anything special about the requests that trigger it, but so
far nothing - will update if we find anything.

A have this problem to, is very annoying... I made a search in google
for "Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module"
and I found millions of sites in this condition... Are there any work
around?
Thanks.
