Strange error trying to access the Admin Panel after a successful Install.....

PHP Run-Time Warning [ 2 ] Description: session_start() [function.session-start]: open(/var/php_sessions/sess_077d02b33715f4c3c2e5740a82291105, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2). in file /hermes/bosweb/web032/b325/sl.alluramo/public_html/thehideoutforum/ChatRoom/ChatRoomACP/admin.mod.php on line 179

Due to the dependency on both PHP and MySQL, Flasherize must remain temporarily closed until the error is rectified. We are sorry for any inconveniences.



What does this mean? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello Michelle,

it looks like your PHP sessions are incorrectly configured. Contact your hosting partner.

From what I can see your PHP is set to save sessions to file, and the directory (/var/php_sessions) where it has been configured to save the files is not writable by PHP.
So this is a problem with your web hosting/PHP configuration.

The relevant section for php.ini is under the [SESSION] directive.

I hope your hosting provider will help you to use sessions. Please note that sessions is a standard functionality of PHP (the programming language) and the problem is not an error in Flasherize Chat.

Let me know how it goes!
