Warning: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in Unknown on line 0

Any Ideas?

chmod 777 the folder tmp and all folders within tmp. You need read write rights.

I am not familiar with phpdev5 or MS products at all, but I really don't think MS Windows can recognize path '/tmp' - in case this pseudoOS (no flame, please) You have to set it to something like 'C:\tmp' or 'C:\Windows\tmp' etc.

Try search string '/tmp' in Your php configuration and try to set parameters 'session.save_path' and 'upload_tmp_dir' properly (I mean point those parameters to existing temporary directory), so PHP can manage session files (and temporary files after upload) on Your filesystem.
