Warning: session_save_path(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect May 4, 2007

Posted by admin in : Simple Issues , trackback

One of our customers faced this issue

Warning: session_save_path(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is *** is not allowed to access owned by uid ***in /httpd/html/oursite/www/catalog/admin/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 213

Solution :

Fix: Goto Admin / Configuration / Sessions and change the “Sessions Directory” to tmp (no slashes)

If you can’t get into Admin, goto your Database Admin page (usually PhPAdmin app.)
Click on any table on the left hand side.
Click on SQL at the top of the screen
Overtype whatever appears in the SQL window with …
UPDATE configuration SET configuration_value = ‘tmp’ WHERE configuration_key=’SESSION_WRITE_DIRECTORY’
