Weird error message about sessions.........

It was really weird. All of a sudden my site showed an error message that said the session file was full. I was having the sessions saved to a file. The only way I could get it to work again was move sessions to mySQL. I don't know what caused it. But, it was really weird.

 

Has anybody else run across this problem? And is there anyway to prevent this in the future?

 

Thanks for the imput

I thought it was weird. I can't reproduce the error message or I would post it. I did a minor change to Ian's sid killer and then moved the sessions back to file, but now it is working. If I get the same message again I'll post it.

 

I know it isn't a full disk. I'm using about 5megs of a 100meg limit.

I just had another encounter with /tmp/ or sessions. I went to upload a file that I just modified and my FTP said that my disk was full. Now this wasn't possible, I only have 18meg on a 100 meg limit. I couldn't figure it out. So I tried one thing, I went and emptied the temp folder, and all of a sudden everything was fine. Too weird.

 

Any suggestions to prevent this, I don't have cron access.

Could you empty the tmp dir in admin/application_top? It would clear the directory each time you log in admin.

 

I'm unsure how you can empty the session dir without breaking current sessions. Maybe check the file time?
