Zend_Session / Zend_Auth randomly throws Error Message ps_files_cleanup_dir: opendir(/var/lib/php5) failed: Permission denied (13)



I'm currently working on a new Application using (among other things) Zend_Auth but, for whatever reason, this Error Message is showing up at any location totally randomly (or so it seams)





Zend_Session::start() - /home/hannes/workspace/develop/library/Zend/Session.php(Line:480): Error #8 session_start() [function.session-start]: ps_files_cleanup_dir: opendir(/var/lib/php5) failed: Permission denied (13) Array





  • #0 /home/hannes/workspace/develop/library/Zend/Session/Namespace.php(143): Zend_Session::start(true)



  • #1 /home/hannes/workspace/develop/library/Zend/Auth/Storage/Session.php(87): Zend_Session_Namespace->__construct('Zend_Auth')



  • #2 /home/hannes/workspace/develop/library/Zend/Auth.php(91): Zend_Auth_Storage_Session->__construct()



  • #3 /home/hannes/workspace/develop/library/Zend/Auth.php(141): Zend_Auth->getStorage()

  • #5 /home/hannes/workspace/develop/library/Zend/Controller/Action.php(133): AdminController->init()



  • #6 /home/hannes/workspace/develop/library/Zend/Controller/Dispatcher/Standard.php(262): Zend_Controller_Action->__construct(Object(Zend_Controller_Request_Http), Object(Zend_Controller_Response_Http), Array)



  • #7 /home/hannes/workspace/develop/library/Zend/Controller/Front.php(954): Zend_Controller_Dispatcher_Standard->dispatch(Object(Zend_Controller_Request_Http), Object(Zend_Controller_Response_Http))



  • #8 /home/hannes/workspace/develop/library/Zend/Application/Bootstrap/Bootstrap.php(97): Zend_Controller_Front->dispatch()



  • #9 /home/hannes/workspace/develop/library/Zend/Application.php(366): Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap->run()



  • #10 /home/hannes/workspace/develop/xxxxxxx/public/index.php(26): Zend_Application->run()



  • #11 {main}







Any Idea/Suggestion welcome!

  1. A solution is to set the session.save_path in the php.ini file to a writable directory.
    for example: session.save_path = "/tmp".
    Switching the session garbage collection off in the first example is not a good idea. The second example does not work on Ubuntu 10.04

  2. Apparently this issue is affecting mostly (only?) debian/ubuntu based systems and has to do with automatic session garbage collection. Check out this link for more: http://somethingemporium.com/2007/06/obscure-error-with-php5-on-debian-ubuntu-session-phpini-garbage

  3. Actually changing the directory of the session.save_path turns garbage collection off. That is why it now works for you. If you want garbage collection you can change the original directory owner to the php user "www-data"

    chown www-data /var/lib/php5

    In the alternative you can write a garbage collection script for the new directory.

  4. I had this problem with the Symfony framework also, the problem is php does not have permission to the session storage directory. Just change the session save directory to somewhere writable. In Zend Framework Bootstrap config ini:

    resources.session.save_path = APPLICATION_PATH "/../data/session"

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
