Strange errors and admin not working

[SurfDude]

Something strange happened to my database, and therefor I reinstalled mySQL. Now I get some very strange errors at the top of my site:
"Warning: open(/tmp\sess_099f7a21f7dd0f021edc04a617e11780, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in c:\phpdev\www\weblog\index.php on line 10

Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at c:\phpdev\www\weblog\index.php:10) in c:\phpdev\www\weblog\index.php on line 13"

And when I try to go to the admin mode (where you can post entries and edit settings and so) I get this:

"Warning: open(/tmp\sess_099f7a21f7dd0f021edc04a617e11780, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in c:\phpdev\www\weblog\index.php on line 10

Warning: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in Unknown on line 0
"

Dows anyone know what I van do to fix this?

You seem to not only have reinstalled MySQL but did something to your PHP installation.

check your php.ini for the setting of session.save_path - you need to point it to the right direcotry, as you seem to be using Windows.

Ok, thanks for your answer. I find something strange now... I found no php.ini file on my computer at al...

When I test the phpinfo() command, it works, and it shows that the path of the php.ini file is c:\winnt . But that location doesn't exist...? I only have c:\windows...

But the phpinfo() says the session.save_path is /tmp . I don't think that's okay...?

So now is the question. Where should I put a php.ini file to make it work?

[garvinhicking]

Put the php.ini file in the root of your windows directory, that should work.

I putted it in C:\WINDOWS now, but it still says: "Configuration File (php.ini) Path c:\winnt ".

Thanks a lot, Garvin. A reboot made it working!

I'm getting these same errors, but on an installation that has been set up and working fine for some time and has had no changes made to it... Here's the errors:

Warning: session_start(): open(/tmp/sess_b60060250d090d7fb511424ca50efed4, O_RDWR) failed: Permission denied (13) in /home/content/x/x/x/xxxx/html/serendipity/index.php on line 9

and at the end of the page:

Warning: Unknown(): open(/tmp/sess_b60060250d090d7fb511424ca50efed4, O_RDWR) failed: Permission denied (13) in Unknown on line 0

Warning: Unknown(): Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in Unknown on line 0

Any suggestions? Thanks

Disregard previous post... must have been problems on the server end as errors have now resolved themselves.
