"Fatal error: session_start() [<a href='function.session-start'>function.session-start</a>]: Failed to initialize storage module: user (path: /www/gifafi/public_html/sessions) in /www/gifafi/public_html/libs/ubbthreads.inc.php on line 55"

Something going on with my sessions? I'm not sure what this means.

session_save_path($config['SESSION_PATH']);
$check = @session_start();
header("Cache-control: private");
}


It looks like it is probably some type of path issue.

I realized that I have file-based sessions turned off on my server because I use a custom MySQL-based handler for my other site.

I think I can htaccess to change the setting for this directory, but I need to find the code.

Hrmm, don't see htaccess on that page anywhere. I guess I should mention that I want to avoid changing the server settings back since, as I understand it, it can be done through htaccess.

I think this is a valid example for your .htaccess (using the above directives):
Code:
php_value session.save_path /tmp

Hrmm, tried dropping this into an .htaccess, no go thus far.

php_value session.auto_start 0
php_value session.save_path /tmp

I think I'm still missing something, I can't seem to find clear directions on how to do this. I might just have to get a new server.

I think you might need to add:

php_admin_value session.save_handler files

Woohoo, the following .htaccess file worked...

Code:
php_value session.auto_start 0
php_value session.save_path /tmp
php_value session.save_handler files


Just had to take out the admin part. Thanks Rick.
