PHP Login Script Problem

columbo1977 · May 5, 2006

Hi

I am new to this and I am trying to get a login PHP script right, when i run the site in my testing server and i goto the login page i get the following error :

Warning: open(/tmp\sess_8624c9e01e8a8248449ffb495f6be885, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in c:\webserver\phpdev5\www\ccc_website\login.php on line 5

does anyone know why this is happening, as i want to get the login system working on the site. Sorry if this is a simple problem but i am new to this.

Please see below for the code.

Thanks

<?php require_once('Connections/DB.php'); ?>
<?php
// *** Validate request to login to this site.

$LoginRS = mysql_query($LoginRS__query, $DB) or die(mysql_error());

The problem is not with your login scripts (as far as I can tell). The problem is either with DB.php or how you handle the sessions. From the warning you are getting I am assuming that you have created custom session handlers that store sessions in files.

Your code is unable to open/create the session file (cache) because the file path is incorrect. If you are running on a windows system then the "/tmp" needs to be changed to "\tmp" or "C:\tmp". If you are running on a Linux box you need to change the session filename from "\sess_xxxxxxxxxxxxx" to "/sess_xxxxxxxxx".

Very simple to do this. You just need to call session_save_path( $path ) ; where $path is the path to the temp dir (that must have read-write-execute priviledges) where the session file will be created.

If you are still having problems let me know. I have some nifty session handling classes you can try out.

Best Regards,

You need to call set_save_path( $path ) before you call session_start( ).
