the problem is not a diskspace problem and not a file count problem. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-09 13:30:19] arnor at netvistun dot is One more thing. I've tried using a event program to trigger an event on each modification in the session save directory (in my case /tmp2). The program runs chmod, chgrp, chown to give anybody rights to do anything (I know that's not wise, but I'm desperate) and a script that deletes all files that are 0 bytes in size (i noticed there were a lot of those). This did not help at all! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-08 19:30:42] arnor at netvistun dot is We (me and the company I work for) have also been having this problem for the last month. This error appears randomly. We made a script to a cronjob which is exicuted every minute. In a log of that script it looks like this error appears in about 6% of ALL request. You can view this log at: http://www.netvistun.is/session_log/log.php the script that can cause this error (and is requested each minute) is at http://www.netvistun.is/session_log/index.php php_info is at http://www.netvistun.is/session_log/info.php The only thing you need to cause this error is: <?php session_start() ?> and that's it. We have made owner/permission changes to the /tmp folder, we have tried clearing the temp directory, we have tried changing the session save directory to another dir. There is lots of space in the directory. We've tried restarting apache every 24 hours, we have done all of the workarounds which you see all over these bug tracks. This bug has been appearing for a long time in the bugtrack (saw one from php 4.1.x), and is always closed with some "workaround". We've experienced this problem ever since php 4.3.1, up to 4.3.7. We are currently running : php 4.3.7 Apache 1.3.31 Linux dist.: Fedora Control panel: WHM (cPanel) php config: './configure' '--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs' '--with-xml' '--enable-bcmath' '--enable-calendar' '--with-curl' '--enable-exif' '--enable-ftp' '--with-gd' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local' '--with-png-dir=/usr' '--with-xpm-dir=/usr/X11R6' '--with-imap' '--with-imap-ssl' '--with-kerberos' '--enable-mbstring' '--enable-mbstr-enc-trans' '--enable-mbregex' '--with-ming=../ming-0.2a' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--with-mysql' '--with-openssl' '--enable-discard-path' '--with-pear' '--enable-xslt' '--with-xslt-sablot' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-track-vars' '--enable-versioning' '--with-xmlrpc' '--with-zlib' Session Support enabled Registered save handlers files user Directive Local Value Master Value session.auto_start Off Off session.bug_compat_42 On On session.bug_compat_warn On On session.cache_expire 180 180 session.cache_limiter nocache nocache session.cookie_domain no value no value session.cookie_lifetime 0 0 session.cookie_path / / session.cookie_secure Off Off session.entropy_file no value no value session.entropy_length 0 0 session.gc_divisor 100 100 session.gc_maxlifetime 1440 1440 session.gc_probability 1 1 session.name PHPSESSID PHPSESSID session.referer_check no value no value session.save_handler files files session.save_path /tmp2 /tmp2 session.serialize_handler php php session.use_cookies On On session.use_only_cookies Off Off session.use_trans_sid On On Any other info I can give, I will give gladly (except root passwords of course :D) I Hope I help. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-07 01:00:05] php-bugs at lists dot php dot net No feedback was provided for this bug for over a week, so it is being suspended automatically.

However, about once a month, the login script fails and php sessions cannot be established. My ISP restarts apache and all works fine again. The ISP is running php4.2.3 on Linux 2.4.20-8smp#1 (as reported by phpinfo() I have now set up php errors to be emailed to me. Once an error message is caught I will add it to this bug report. It could be some time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
