Try opening up your functions.php file located /includes/functions.php

And look to see from line 40 to line 52 reads:
Code: [Select]
function countusersonline() {
   $count = 0;

   $handle = opendir(session_save_path());
   if ($handle == false) return 1;

   while (($file = readdir($handle)) != false) {
       if (ereg("^sess", $file)) $count++;
   }
   closedir($handle);

   return $count;
}

If so and it still spits out that error Im not sure but it might be a server configuration.
You might also want to talk to Kurt or admin, they probably would know more about.

Yeah, it's the server settings remove the line:
Code: [Select]
Users Online: <? echo countusersonline(); ?><br />
in your footer.php file in the template directory, or contact your host to change the settings.

Without knowing what the error codes were, not really. Sorry. It's like a doctor needing to know symptoms before he can figure out what's wrong.

Your host has PHP in safe mode. In order to get around that you will need to contact them. It is not very likely that they will though as it was probably set that way on purpose for security reasons. If that is the case, the only thing you can do is not use the feature that is causing the error.

There is a slight possibility that you might get it to work by changing the permissions on /tmp. It is worth a try, but I would not hold my breath. It is located above the public_html folder, in the very root of your account, on most hosting. Give that a try and let me know, I'm curious now. Sorry we couldn't be of more help, but in this case there isn't much we can even try, it most likely is going to be up to your hosting company.
