The newest CVS doesn't use a database for session storage (unless you
override PHP's session handler yourself).

Anyway, to address your point, you should probably turn down your
error reporting level in config/defaults.php3 if this is a production
installation.  There's also an option in php.ini to log warnings and
errors to a file as opposed to echoing them to the user.
