Sessions not working properly on live server - webmachine - 11-17-2015
I am building my CI application locally using XAMPP and all was well, so I decided to upload it to my hosting provider's server to demo it to my client.
I had problems with SESSIONS. I checked and fixed file and directory permissions, tried setting $config['sess_save_path'] to a cache directory with no luck, so I switched to database sessions and set up a ci_sessions table in my database. That got me as far as my login form (the index method in my Users.php controller), but when I logged in, I got the message 'No input file specified'.
Here is my login method from my Users.php controller:
PHP Code:
public function login() {
$this->form_validation->set_rules('email', 'Email Address', 'trim|required|valid_email');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('password', 'Password', 'trim|required|min_length[3]');
if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE) {
$data = array(
'errors' => validation_errors()
);
$this->session->set_flashdata($data);
redirect('users');
} else {
$email = $this->input->post('email');
$password = $this->input->post('password');
$user_id = $this->user_model->login_user($email, $password);
if ($user_id) {
$_SESSION['user_id'] = $user_id;
$_SESSION['logged_in'] = true;
$_SESSION['user_role'] = $this->user_model->get_user_role($user_id);
$this->session->set_flashdata('login_success', 'You are now logged in');
if ($_SESSION['user_role']->role_id == '1') {
redirect('admin/administrators');
} elseif ($_SESSION['user_role']->role_id == '2') {
redirect('careplanners');
} elseif ($_SESSION['user_role']->role_id == '3') {
redirect('coordinators');
}
} else {
$this->session->set_flashdata('login_failure', 'That is an incorrect email/password combination. Please try again.');
redirect('users');
}
}
}
Why is this no longer working for me?

Hi
Change $config['sess_save_path'] = NULL; to $config['sess_save_path'] = '' in config.php file
if error not resolved than please paste here your error or attach screen shot for error.
So I can help you

You should check your server configuration.
This is an example. I don't know it helps you or not:
