I try to get PHP to save it's session files in the /sessions directory (set session.save_path = e:\sessions) on my document drive, but no matter what I do and how I specify the directory (forward and backward slashes) it keeps saving them in the /tmp directory on that same drive (e:\tmp). There is no reference to /tmp in my whole php.ini file!
From my point of view it looks like the session.save_path directive recognition in the php.ini file is broken.

Did you restart Apache?

I use the ISAPI version of PHP (IIS5) and Yes, I restarted that many times to checkt the (mis)behaviour of this directive.

Try the PHP 4.2.0RC2 from http://www.php.net/~derick/
(and remember to replace php4ts.dll also!)

If you still have problems with it, reopen this bug report.

I have actually had the same problem with my system running Win2K AdvSrv SP3, Apache2.0.45, PHPv4.3.2-RC (from snaps...).

I have everything working fine except for my sessions. They continuosly want to be stored on '/tmp\...' even though i have modified the php.ini as follows:

NOTE: 
install dir for php is 'w:\var\php'
install dir for apache is 'w:\var\www'
temp folder desired is 'w:\var\www\tmp'

session.save_path = w:\var\www\tmp
session.save_path = w:\var\php\tmp
session.save_path = w:\var\tmp

i have tried all these configurations, but info.php continues to state the my session.save_path is '/tmp'. and yes, i have restarted Apache (multiple times, included complete stop and starts) and even restarted server to remove and cached information. all to no avail.

completely frustratin, since i have everything else on the site up and running, i just can seem to remember what i was running and who i was running it for ;)
