Posted by helge 06 Sep 2003 20:16 UTC posts: 1 I had this problem, as well. tiki-setup.php checks the temp-dir: $tempdir = dirnamefalse, ; and gets /tmp (on a Unix machine). Problem is: PHP is not allowed to write there. Workaround: Create your own temp dir, e.g. /home/www/user123/html/tmp. Set write permissions to this directory. Change the command $tempdir = dirname... to $tempdir=/home/www/user123/html/tmp in tiki-setup.php. Greetings, Helge
Posted by Hagel 06 Sep 2003 23:31 UTC posts: 4 This sounds like a solution to my problem but then another problem comes, namely I haven't got a clue of the directory structure below mine, so I can't relocate the temp dir. Is there any script or tool to find out? Regards Hagel
Posted by Hagel 06 Sep 2003 23:35 UTC posts: 4 I found it, but now I get a massive error trying to run tiki-install.php 'Fatal error: Undefined class name 'tikisetup' in /home/soulnois/public_html/tiki/tiki-install.php on line 128' And index.php doesn't work at all now.
Posted by blackmoon 07 Sep 2003 16:12 UTC posts: 1 I did the work around but now when I point my browswer to tiki-install.php I get; Fatal error: Undefined class name 'tikisetup' in /home2/davis/public_html/test_forum/tiki-install.php on line 128 also... now what?

Posted by Xavier de Pedro 16 Apr 2010 21:08 UTC posts: 1817 this hack from Damian: Copy to clipboardini_set('session.save_path', '/somewhere/within/your/tiki/install'); is still valid if you add that line to your local.php file (thanks jonnyb for the tip) in Tiki5 This way we avoided the error message: The directory '/tmp' does not exist or PHP is not allowed to access it (check open_basedir entry in php.ini
