When you report problems, please tell us what platform/version you're on,
and also what version of PHP, Apache, etc. you're using.

Your PHP wasn't compiled with DBM support.  You've configured PHPLIB
session storage to use DBM, but you need to compile your PHP --with-dbm
for that to work.  Keep in mind that several others have reported problems
using DBM for session storage; you should consider using shlib, MySQL, or
PostgreSQL instead.
