#40464 [NEW]: Session.save_path wont use default-value

[benni at gniza dot org]

From: benni at gniza dot org
Operating system: SuSE 9.3
PHP version: 5.2.1
PHP Bug Type: *Configuration Issues
Bug description: Session.save_path wont use default-value

Description:
------------
I can approve the behavior of BUG-ID 40434

Sessions won't work without setting a session.save_path explicitly! If you
just comment the session.save_path-line you get the error:

====
SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is XZY is not
allowed to access owned by uid 0 in [Scriptname:Line of session_start()]
====

This behavior is either a bug or the manual is wrong.

Quote from the manual:
==
session.save_path defines [...]. Defaults to /tmp.
==

If I explicitly set the save_path (to /tmp or somewhere else) all is
okay!

Greetings Benjamin
