[radbrad]

Hi everyone!

I just upgraded my 1.5 beta to 1.5 final. Everything is working great! Thank You!!!! But I now get this error in my General info tab, it doesn't seem to be causing any problems. Is this safe to ignore or does anyone know what it means?

well, login is either done by cookies or sessions (if I am right)
so if your server does not support sessions and PP is using cookies, there will be an empty session folder

that is what I assume.

This could be explained in the wiki, I think. Will put it on the list

That is in a little way Coonie.

Login is based by default on sessions. If you have empty session_save_path it means that you wont login without marking option "Remember me". Thanks to this option on your machine is set cookie which gives you option to login without need to relogin in each page you are watching in admin panel. If you dont mark "Remember me" and session path is empty then you wont watch admin panel pages without must of relogin in each page.

Anyway it is good to set this path in PHP or server configuration files i.e. for other PHP applications which are not so liberal for this issue.

Thanks for the help, I just wonder why it is saying that since I upgraded. I will edit the php.ini anyway to see if that helps.

Thanks,

Because it was added in some beta version not earlier.
