| by bfalzarano on 2009/4/24 15:43:24 Thanks for the info. The system is not from a hosting provider. It is a local system. Is there anything more specific I should look at in regards to enabling the use of sessions? I did load XOOPS sucessfully on a Windows system running APACHE, PHP, and SQL. I was hoping to run XOOPS on the FreeBSD system. Thanks. |

| Installation error -call to undefined function session_start |
| by bfalzarano on 2009/4/23 21:49:35 I have followed the steps outlined in the XOOPS installation guide. I launch the installer via http://myserveripaddress/xoopsrootdirectory but receive the following error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function session_start () in /usr/local/www/xoops/install/include/common.inc.php on line 40 It appears that index.php is called from the installer which then calles page_langselect.php page_langselect.php then calls to include the file common.inc.php which calls a session_start function I have tried to re-upload XOOPS followng the transfer steps and suggestions such as preserving the directory with no luck. PHP version 5.2 FreeBSD 7.0 MySQL version 4.1.25 Please advise how to further troubleshoot this error. Thank you for your help. Best regards, -Bart |
