We are hosting privider, 5+ servers with PHP sites. * Apache 1.3.33 / PHP 4.3.9, mod_php. * Session folder is OK, rather empty. * Bug is not related to Zend Optmiziser, not installed. * Under heavy load this bug freqency increases, more than just to reflect increased load. * I cannot approve or reject wherever CGI PHP is affected by this bug. I suspect that it is not affected. [2005-03-08 15:35:18] xtrange at gmail dot com In the php.ini I put: register_argc_argv = On ...and problem solved! [2005-03-03 21:26:59] reaper at fudo dot org To follow up to myself: my problem was that in php.ini i had: session.save_handler = user This is not the default. The default setting, that works for me, is: session.save_handler = files It was changed by a fellow admin, and i was unaware of this. Changing the setting back to teh defualt allowed everything to work exactly as it should. [2005-03-03 21:09:30] reaper at fudo dot org I am experiencing the same thing with apache 2.0.53, php 4.3.10, and linux 2.6 (debian). I notice that there is no real fix, and that this problem is persistent. I will investigate further, but is this a real problem or not? If it is, it should be dealt with.

session.save_path = /tmp
and it is also /tmp when this error occurs(checked the way you
suggested)
[2003-10-17 08:27:08] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
What is the exact line in php.ini for session.save_path ?
Also, what is session.save_path set to when this error happens? (add
'echo ini_get("session.save_path");' before the session_start() and
turn output_buffering on in php.ini)
[2003-10-17 04:39:19] golden at riscom dot com
/tmp is not a separate partition
/dev/da0s1a 4.7G 133M 4.2G 3%/
[2003-10-17 04:37:05] golden at riscom dot com

[2003-10-16 22:34:57] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Is the /tmp directory writeable by the web server and is there
avaliable space in there?
