Hi all,

when i try to access the first page install.php from the brower I get the following message:

( PHP Warning: Unknown: open(C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1.NDT\LOCALS~1\Temp\php\session\sess_9a7bd5p6h7dml81rfk4rtbtok5, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in Unknown on line 0 PHP Warning: Unknown: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1.NDT\LOCALS~1\Temp\php\session) in Unknown on line 0 )

I have attached the error message

any idea how to fix this?

thanks

Hi Rawand

Take a look at this link in the Installation FAQ - it describes the problem your're experiencing with a possible solution.

The permanent solution suggested in the FAQ is to set the file permissions and is mainly Linux-based. As you're using a PC, can I suggest that you do the following equivalent:
  1. Load Explorer and search for the file php.ini on your c: drive.
  2. Double-click to edit the file (or right-click -> open with wordpad).
  3. Edit -> Find, and look for session.save_path.
  4. Change the setting so that it is session.save_path = "c:\windows\temp". Any process should have access rights to that folder by default.
  5. Save the php.ini file.
  6. Restart your webserver so that it re-reads the ini file.
Any better?

Ken
