Hello,
I've developed my site, and tested on a web host (Apache, PHP 4.3.9).
Now I've uploaded to a different host (IIS, PHP 4.3.1) where I want to keep it, and I get session error messages like:
Warning: session_start() [function.session-start <http://www.php.net/function.session-start>]: open(/tmp\sess_30f6794de4b0d80b91035c6c01aae52d, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in E:\W3Sites\ywamsa\www\timburgan\index.php on line 9

The problem is that the php installation on this server is not configured correctly. It still holds the default session location (/tmp) which doesn't exist on Windows PCs.
You need to ask the server administrator to verify the PHP installation and point the session location directory to a valid location on the server.
You also have the option of creating your own session location directory by inserting the following at the beginning of each script.
session_save_path('...public/tmp');I happen to do this because my hosting company uses load balancing which means I can never know what server is processing my PHP script. I place my session location in a tmp folder in my public directory. Otherwise I would lose my session variables periodically.
