phpMyAdmin doesn't work

[erik@delphi]

hi people,

When i login to my /cpanel and start phpMyAdmin i get

Warning: session_write_close() [function.session-write-close]: open(/tmp/sess_6497ef38b205c5f8fcc649cec9add039, O_RDWR) failed: Permission denied (13) in /usr/local/cpanel/base/3rdparty/phpMyAdmin/index.php on line 44

Warning: session_write_close() [function.session-write-close]: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in /usr/local/cpanel/base/3rdparty/phpMyAdmin/index.php on line 44

the solutions mentioned here in other threads with similar problems (deleting the sessionid ) does not resolve the problem and yeah the permissions on my /tmp are correct ! now what ?

Is your tmp dir full?

No ....

root@somename [/tmp]# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 152696708 5675268 139264860 4% /

This error can arise if one logs into PHPMyAdmin, as root, from WHM, then in the same browser, but different tab, log into PHPMyAdmin from cPanel. The 'unique' information used to create the server side session appears to be tied to the browser session as a whole, regardless of the tab currently used. Thus with the describe scenario, the session file is created in /tmp with root ownership. The next request to PHPMyAdmin, from the cPanel side, tries to create the same session file, but with cpanel ownership. This attempt fails.

To resolve, remove the session file(s) from /tmp

rm -f /tmp/sess_6497ef38b205c5f8fcc649cec9add039

What about on a SuPHP install?

 

[cpane1]

have you tried,

/scripts/securetmp ?

What about on a SuPHP install?

As phpMyAdmin runs on cpservd rather than Apache, it is not subject to SuPHP.
