The error just means you are printing something out before you call session_start(); you just need to call session_start() *before* you print anything out to the page, so it's best off called at the top/start of your php page. -----Original Message----- From: Voodoo [mailto:cronopio@terra.com.br] Sent: 10 November 2003 5:09 To: php-windows@lists.php.net Subject: Session configuration I'm using php 4.3.0 under an IIS server, and I'm having some trouble on starting a session. I guess it's a configuration problem. Tried to edit the php.ini file, and found this line: ; Handler used to store/retrieve data. session.save_handler = files ; Argument passed to save_handler. In the case of files, this is the path ; where data files are stored. Note: Windows users have to change this ; variable in order to use PHP's session functions. I don't know what changes I got to do, as Windows user, to get it working properly. Is this the problem? The session.save_path is allright, I can see the session file being created every time I use the session_start() method, but I receive this error message: Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cookie - headers already sent by (output started at c:\(blah)\teste.php:9) in c:\(blah)\teste.php on line 12 Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at c:\(blah)\teste.php:9) in c:\(blah)\teste.php on line 12 The script I'm using to test it is the session example script from the documentation at php.net: session_start(); if (isset($HTTP_SESSION_VARS['count'])) { $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['count']++; }else { $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['count'] = 0; } echo $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['count']."<br>"; ?> <a href="teste.php">Acrescentar</a> Can somebody help me?
