Session problem :(

[DanUK]

Hello guys.
Any idea why this is occuring? I've seen it quite a few times now...
The problem i'm getting is:

Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module. in /path/to/my/header.php on line 2

What causes this and how is it fixed please?

Have you been able to use sessions before or is this the first time you've tried with your current set up?

If it is the first time, then it could be how the php.ini file is configured.

Hi there, yep i've been able to use them for a very long time, usually with no problem, i just sometimes see this error.

Thanks.
