no tmp directory so no sessions

[HoTMeLter]

I am getting the message: Warning: The sessions directory does not exist: /tmp. Sessions will not work until this directory is created

 

I have transferred the site to a new server manually and do not have a tmp directory before the httpdocs directory on the new server. I cannot add this directory either.

 

Is there a way around this?

 

Thanks guys..

Ade,

 

Using your FTP Client, create the /tmp directory and ensure the directory attributes are 777 (chmod)

NEVER set directory attributes to 777. EVER!

I have had attributes set on /tmp folders to 777 on all my sites without problems. In fact, there are several contributions with cache folders that also require 777 attributes.

 

Perhaps you should look into those.

 

 

Also, if you believe the information I provides is incorrect.............feel free to offer the correct solution :huh:

I repeat, never, ever set directory attributes to 777... That is the correct solution

[Guest]

I guess that is your personal opinion.

 

The solution I was referring to was the OP question. NOT my response.
