[Laur88nt]

Hello

I have a problem with phpmyadmin
I followed this tutorial: http://www.howtoforge.com/installing-lighttpd-with-php5-and-mysql-support-on-fedora9

Installation was ok.
I get an error from phpMyAdmin

phpMyAdmin - Error
Cannot start session without errors, please check errors given in your PHP and/or webserver log file and configure your PHP installation properly.

How can I solve this problem?

Are there any errors in your logs?

Hi falko

i resolve de problem with:

1. gedit /etc/php.ini
to see the directory location
search the line "session.save_path"
to see the directory location

2. chown -R root:lighttpd /var/lib/php/session
*for me

Chown default folder was root:apache and must root:lighttpd

After that works normally.


If an error occurs will phpmyadmin with:
Can not load Mcrypt extension. Please check your PHP configuration

Use:
yum install php-mcrypt
