Hi All,
I have just downloaded CMS Made Simple, and trying to install it onto my sever. Everything has came up ok apart the following
Checking if session.save_path is writable
Your session.save_path is "". Not having this as writable may make logins to the Admin Panel not work.
I am such a newbie at this i was wondering if anyone can help me on how to fix this.
Thanks
Euphoria

Try adding this to your .htaccess file
php_value session.save_path 'C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\'
or some other path you can write to.

You might not just be seeing it. It's considered a hidden file and some FTP programs don't display them by default. You'd need to check your FTP programs settings to be sure. If your host has a web base filemanager I would double check there too.
Yes, just create one. You would put it at the main directory of your website.
If you're on windows you will not be able to create the file and upload it. You'll have to create a file named something else, like ht.access and rename it in your FTP client.
