Invalid Session
login failed
I have searched lot and they says the error occurs due to session.save_path
Please anyone tell me how this session.save_path edited in easyphp and solve this problem .I am facing big issues due to this
As one answer says i have changed session.save_path="E:/easyphp/temp/" But it not effected at all..
Please help
Solution 2
Finaly I have Solved this issue,by done the following
I changed the session.save_path in php.ini
session.save_path = "absolute path to the temp folder"
Also I have changed the session path in .htaccess file in the sessions folder of joomla 1.0
Joomla 1.0 is using differnt method to save session variables than other joomla versions
OTHER TIPS
Check session.save_path in php.ini, it should be like
session.save_path = "C:\php\temp"
and DIR path should be valid
