What are the php/platform details?
session_name() is supported for all php4 and php5 versions according to the documentation.

My guess is that sessions were disabled somehow. Can you make a phpinfo script that is accessible to the internet somewhere?

Seems you're running SuSE Linux 9.1. ;)
My guess is you did not install the php4-session package. Perhaps you need the other php4-* packages as well.

php4-session? That's just silly. Practially every php4 app uses sessions these days. But, yeah, that sounds like the right answer to me.

There are 44 php4-*.i586.rpm packages in the 9.1 base repository, I have 42 installed. This is a change compared to 9.0, and someone who does not know about this, could come into trouble.

The reason why the error comes was simple.
It was a new installation of suse linux, because i mount a complete new motherboard and changed other hardware.
And this was the reason:
;session.save_path = /tmp
correct
session.save_path = /tmp
But now i changed the Version of some Software to:
phpmyadmin 2.6.0-pl1
PHP Version 4.3.9
Apache/2.0.52 (Linux/SUSE)
And then i attempt a new installation of cmsmadesimple and got another error.
Then i install the newest Version of adodb version 4.5.3 and this error was forgotten.

You installed the newest version of adodb? That should already be included in the CMS distro...
That's weird that having the /tmp dir commented out would shut off sessions, but I guess it makes sense.
At least it's working.

I don't compare it, but the changed datafiles of adodb have greater filesizes.

Hmm, I thought hardware changes are easily picked up by GNU/Linux?

Hmm, interesting, where did you get those 3 from?

1. new hardware
with linux simple but a new harddisk = new installation, new amd 64 bit mainboard = new installation
2. some errors are so simple and selfmade
3.php and apache from ftp.suse.com, phpmyadmin directly

This is the second error i reported (adodb):
Fatal error: You must have the mysqli extension installed. in /opt/lampp/htdocs/simple/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysqli.inc.php on line 52
This error comes every time by new installation.
After copying the full adodb - version the error was killed.
Now i changed my configuration
MySQL 4.0.21
Apache/2.0.52 (Unix) mod_perl/1.99_13 Perl/v5.8.4 mod_ssl/2.0.52 OpenSSL/0.9.7d PHP/5.0.2 DAV/2
With php 5.02 (Suse Linux 9.1) no problems with the cms.

Oh, I see. mysqli related issues. Yeah, I haven't fully tested this, as mysql 4.1 isn't in gentoo yet. I'm not completly surprised that it's not working fully yet.
Thanks for the heads up as to it being a problem.
