smashmouth Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 ok, before I was getting an error where it said could not write session function something or other. Anyways, I went into the php.ini and changed the session.save_path from C:/tmp to /tmp because I use hostgator now and not my own server. Problem is, the error is gone form the page, but when i look where the session files are saving, they are not in the /tmp folder. Any ideas on how to check this properly to make sure its working? Thanks. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/192756-phpini-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
jl5501 Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 can you see /tmp on your hostgator server? It would be most unlikely that you can. the / in /tmp is not the / of your webspace, but the / for the root of the server's file system.

smashmouth Posted February 20, 2010 Author Share Posted February 20, 2010 right. (I have /tmp in my main directory as well) so if the the tmp folder is in my public_html then how do I set it to save in that directory? Thanks.

jl5501 Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 you need to know the full filesystem path to your public_html on hostgator that is likely to be /home/yourusername/public_html Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/192756-phpini-help/#findComment-1015413 Share on other sites More sharing options...
