No such file or directory

[Guest]

I get the following error on setting up osCommerce;-

 

PHP Warning: session_start(): open(/tmp\sess_94da1aebe7f6c9a7041123d5f90dcbcd, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in c:\domains\hosting-uk.org\wwwroot\catalog\admin\includes\functions\sessions.php on line 67 PHP Warning: Unknown(): open(/tmp\sess_94da1aebe7f6c9a7041123d5f90dcbcd, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in Unknown on line 0 PHP 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

 

Where should this temp directory be created?

[241]

SESSION DIRECTORY DOES NOT EXIST

 

change the last line in the following files

 

catalog/includes/configure.php

admin/includes/configure.php

 

from

define('STORE_SESSIONS', '');

to

define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'mysql');

Is it best to store the sessions in the database as opposed to a tmp file?

 

I have used the tmp file method so far and been able to fix the problem by changing the tmp location but maybe the database method is better. If so why?

 

Many thanks
