Package: phpmyadmin Version: 2.9.1.1-3
if you run phpmyadmin with php5 configured to use memcached as the session store (using php5-memcache v2.1.2-1), then phpmyadmin whinges about "no such file..." when attempting to fetch or write session data. obviously, this prevents logging in. and any other use of the program.

Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (tcp://192.168.128.1:11211,tcp://192.168.128.2:11211) in Unknown on line 0 an ugly hack workaround is to edit /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/common.lib.php and add the following lines immediately after the initial block of comments. // set sessions back to file-based because it is // hard-coded it to only work with file-based sessions ini_set('session.save_handler' , "files"); ini_set('session.save_path' , "/var/lib/php5"); but the correct fix is for phpmyadmin not to make bone-headed assumptions about how session handling is done - after all, anyone using php and mysql is likely to want to store their sessions in mysql rather than files because file-based sessions suck performance-wise, and for any number of other reasons. craig -- Craig Sanders <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Systems Administrator School of Chemistry University of Melbourne Ph: +61 3 8344-7309 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
