Session_start failing because lack of permissions
<p>I'm using Windows 7 with an Administrator account. I have Xampp installed at C:\xampp.</p>

<p>I have the same problem that <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/670595/php-session-start-fails">this situation</a>, and I tried:</p>

<ul>
<li>Uncheck "read only" boxes to all files and folders</li>
<li>attrib -r -a C:\xampp\tmp /S /D (without the /D gives file not found)</li>
<li>Selected "everyone" in security just to make sure. </li>
</ul>

<p>My xampp and tmp folder are now probably the unsafest folder in my computer, but I still get</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]:
  open(\xampp\tmp\sess_1fcpeje5cqaopevmlclif9ejc0, O_RDWR) failed: No
  such file or directory (2)</p>
</blockquote>

<p>Which I think it means that the folder is still not writable.
My code is just as </p>

<pre><code>&lt;?php
session_start();
....
&gt;
</code></pre>
