RESOLVED! Problem installing on Godaddy shared

Postby tracer9 » 16.02.2012, 18:51

Install goes without error. upon first attempt at log in I get the following error at the top of the page and cannot log in

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: open(/var/chroot/home/content/X/X/X/XXXXXXXXX/tmp/sess_2ddee3c4db297aaf75829fd012b65aca, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in /home/content/X/X/X/XXXXXXXXX/html/ld/collabtive/init.php on line 6

- The X's referrenced above replace elements of my user name. I'm current user of Collabtive on another platform and love it. Just need to get it working with GoDaddy - Thanks.

this seems like a problem with session configuration
php seems to be configured to store sessions on /tmp
However, the /tmp directory seems not to be present.

You may be able to fix this using ini_set(http://php.net/manual/de/function.ini-set.php) () to change session.save_path ( http://www.php.net/manual/en/session.co ... .save-path) at runtime to another dir than /tmp

You need to do this right at the start of init.php , before session_start()

Philipp you were right on the mark. I looked again and its trying to write to a /tmp file ABOVE my absolute hosting path which i do not have access to. I used your helpful link and used the "session_save_path" directive to point the session to a lower directory I control, where I simply created a /tmp directory and all is well.

For anyone else with this issue trying to install on Godaddy, here is the line I inserted in init.php IMMEDIATELY BEFORE "session_start();

session_save_path('/xxxxx/xxxxxxx/x/x/x/xxxxxxx/html/ld/collabtive/tmp');

(again I've subsituted x's for my "ABSOLUTE" path elements)

Thanks again for a first class product and first class support!
