We have this problem to. Nothing helps :( Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-05 04:51:14] rsalsa at gmail dot com I'm experiencing this bug as well and none of the fixes mention helped. I've got a production system where this is happening on right now. Every php application has is affected is just calling session_start(); If it helps the PHP developers out, I can give you access to the system for testing, monitoring, etc. Just let me know. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-03 22:40:39] s at guerril dot nnoosppaamm dot la I'm hitting this same issue with php 5.0.3 on Debian 1:3.3.5-13 using a custom session handler that writes to MySQL database. It comes up intermittently, usually persists for a few seconds (all pageloads that take place over that time), then goes away. The workaround of forcing session.save_handler to "files" is not working for me, nor do I think it's appropriate in this situation since I do want a user-defined handler after all. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-02-15 14:43:25] jjohanso at online dot no Running with this configuration, FreeBSD FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p9 #0: Wed Aug 4 19:02:38 CEST 2004 Database Version: MySQL 4.0.18 PHP Version: 4.3.11 Web Server: Apache/2.0.52 (FreeBSD) PHP/4.3.11 WebServer to PHP interface: apache2handler session.save_handler in php.ini set to files, I see this problem with a low frequency (maybe 2-3 times every second day when working with updates to my CMS system all day). Doing a web search in the CMS community it seems that a number of people is strugling with this problem... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-12-20 18:06:25] siggi at junesystems dot com A workaround for this problem is to reset the session handlers for PHP before calling session_start for the second time. You can use the session_set_save_handler() function for this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-12-08 07:59:46] henmarrina at gmail dot com while i was working on joomla admin module i got this error: Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module. in /var/www/html/workspace/joomla/administrator/index2.php on line 34 as suggested by may forum i have changed session.save_handler in php.ini to files. but error is still there........is there any concrete solution for this problem ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
