| Summary | 0000558: CACHE_SESSION_DIR fixed to an inaccessible directory | ||||
| Description | CACHE_SESSION_DIR is hard set to /tmp, which is often inaccessible in specific server configurations. Looking over it, the entire constants.php seems wrong to me. It shouldn't be stored in repository like that, but instead generated from present platform configuration when first accessed the ~/wacko/setup/. | ||||

As you certainly recognized this issue is already in the ToDo list for R6.0 under Installer: define('CACHE_SESSION_DIR', '/tmp'); is defined in constant.php, and currently not set via the installer. We might use ini_get('session.save_path') as indicator, BUT we do not use the PHP build in session! -> write value, its a nuisance that the user currently has to do this on his own I did not further evaluate yet how this issue can be solved. Perhaps we can use ini_get('session.save_path') directly as default when CACHE_SESSION_DIR is not set, so both options are available. a. session.save_path (default) b. CACHE_SESSION_DIR (for those who want use a different dedicated dir/path) for patch see https://wackowiki.org/doc/Dev/Release/R6.0/InaccessibleSessionDirectory |

This commonly an issue on shared hostings, where session.save_path is redirected into user's profile directory. I'll see about proof-of-concept patch. |

I created a related wiki page and added a patch, but I'm not sure if this is the proper way to do this. |
