Description Mark A. Hershberger 2012-02-13 18:26:18 UTC

With typical Debian permissions: $ ls -ld /var/lib/php5
drwx-wx-wt 2 root root 315392 Feb 13 13:12 /var/lib/php5

I saw the following error when I was suppose to get the LocalSettings.php:

  Error starting session: session_start() [<a href='function.session-
  start'>function.session-start</a>]: ps_files_cleanup_dir: opendir(/var
  /lib/php5) failed: Permission denied (13) 

Hitting reload meant I could download LocalSettings.php without a problem.

That is an upstream regression of some sort. Ubuntu has a bug for it at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5/+bug/619855  there must be a debian bug somewhere.

Nothing we can really do about it :/
