PHP Session Error - Invalid Argument

[LarissaF15]

My website keeps throwing the error below. I have no experience with PHP and how to fix. Can anyone help?

PHP Warning: session_start(): open(C:\Windows\TEMP\sess_03ccf17dbdb800b4567fe35ffcf287bc, O_RDWR) failed: Invalid argument (22) in D:\Data\Web\abbott-group.new\staging\wp-content\plugins\easyship-woocommerce-shipping-rates\easyship.php on line 73 PHP Warning: session_start(): Failed to read session data: files (path: ) in D:\Data\Web\abbott-group.new\staging\wp-content\plugins\easyship-woocommerce-shipping-rates\easyship.php on line 73

Is there an update to that plugin, and is it compatible with your PHP and WordPress version?

[LarissaF15]

The plugin has been tested to wordpress 5.2.1.

They have commented that they think it’s related to PHP/Windows more than the plugin.

What web server are you using Apache, IIS, something else? A web search turns up more results for the error/error number for IIS than for Apache.

This type of error means there’s a problem with the session.save_path. However, if the folder being used doesn’t exist, the error message states so (on an Apache web server) and is a different error number. I suspect a permission problem, i.e. the user the web server is running under doesn’t have permission to access the folder being used in the session.save_path setting. That the (path: ) part of the error message is empty, is odd, unless you or the forum software altered what was posted/displayed?

Check your php.ini file under the [Session] section.
