Sessions not deleting

The full path is: /home/user/public_html
Is that what you mean? If not, how do I find the info you are looking for? 

If that is where the CodeIgniter "index.php" file is found then, yes that's what I was looking for.

Because you use this to define where session files are saved

PHP Code:

$config['sess_save_path'] = FCPATH . "sessions"; 


we know that the CodeIgniter session files are at  /home/user/public_html/sessions/

So, that makes me reasonably confident that the session files building up in /var/cpanel/php/sessions/ea-php55 are related to cpanel.
