phpMyAdmin – Error “cannot start session without errors”

March 14, 2010 | In: Cpanel

cannot start session without errors, please check errors given in your PHP and/or webserver log file and configure your PHP installation properly.

The usual error which comes up with phpmyadmin. The issue can either be due to the cPanel’s PHP or its session settings. Try the following fix

Open up the file /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/etc/phpmyadmin/php.ini

Change the session path to /tmp

From

session.save_handler = sqlite
session.save_path =/var/cpanel/userhomes/cpanelphpmyadmin/sessions

To

session.save_handler = files
session.save_path = /tmp
