[dev] Re: Re: Problem with session

[Roman Dvoran]

Hi,

1) the file session,

I'm getting this error 
 Warning: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the
current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in Unknown on line 0

which is displayed on the web page, not on logs.

when I change the code, to not encode session ID, I can get inside.
I've temporary put log messages in Horde.php and it passed through,
that's why I'm thinking that the problem is somewhere else.
alse the error message saying "in Unknown on line 0"
means, that the error was generated somewhere, that is not handled.

my usage:
psql as backend for prefs
latest CVS for all appl (HORDE, IMP, TURBA, INGO).

2) the sql problem.
Whan I turn on SQL for sessionhandler, I get session ID with data put into
database,  so I can correctly login to horde framework,
but when I choose any application, I'm redirected to login page.
So it does not seems to be wrong database setup, as the data are in database
table...
