session variables not working anymore

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

hello,
i use sessions to handle authentication within my site. my host has been changing a lot of settings in the server recently for "security purposes". and the technicians are pretty much clueless about what they are doing. they changed something in the configuration and all of a sudden the sessions dont seem to be working. i suspect register_globals. can anyone tell me the possible reasons for this?

they also played with the open_basedir setting and now i cant seem to be able to upload files because "/tmp" is restricted. i would appreciate it if you can tell me a workaround to it too.

/edit:
just did a var_dump on $_SESSION and it gives NULL
