I recently started messing around with sessions and everything was going fine until I decided to load the gz extension.

From hours of experimenting I found out that when the extention dir is correctly mentioned (c:\progra~1\php\extensions in my case) then my session.save_path is set to /tmp even though the php.ini tells it to use c:\progra~1\php\sessiondata.

It also happens in 4.31, I don't know if it happens before that. Now the question is, how can I have both the sessions and the extensions?

What are the EXACT lines for session.save_path and extension_dir in your php.ini ??
 [2003-03-22 18:15 UTC] bid3k at hotmail dot com 
they are:

session.save_path = C:\WINDOWS\Temp    ; argument passed to save_handler

extension_dir = C:\Progra~1\PHP\extensions ;<-- this is frelled!!!!!!

If I use the longfile name then it can't find the files. Just thought I would mention if case you wanted to know it.

The problem got fixed when I got a copy of my friend's PHP.ini and modified it for my system. I really don't know what was wrong, but oh well. it works now.

Obviously not any bug in PHP then.
And _always_ put any paths in php.ini inside double quotes.
