can't install hotstart. please help

Hello.

Whenever I try installing this template hotstart i get these lines on the top of the page:

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: open(/home/content/31/10924531/tmp/sess_9gj7r4uibn17q7d3numrk0uo01, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in /home/content/31/10924531/html/raven/libraries/joomla/session/session.php on line 532

And these on the bottom

Warning: session_write_close() [function.session-write-close]: open(/home/content/31/10924531/tmp/sess_9gj7r4uibn17q7d3numrk0uo01, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in /home/content/31/10924531/html/raven/libraries/joomla/session/session.php on line 676

Also, it will not let me go past the language selection.

I have tried chmod 644 for file and 755 for directories, and even 777 for all, but to no avail.

Could this be because I have WORDPRESS installed on the root of this host?

Thanks.

EDIT:

GoDaddy won't give me read/write access to $tmp... can anyone tell me the command to insert before session_start(); to make it use another directory (maybe something that's not /tmp but /html/something) please?

You should be able to change CHMOD (file/folder permissions) using fileZilla.

As for wearings go to joomla global configuration and level down value of "Error Reporting" parameter

Ivan,

Thanks for the answer.

Unfortunately, I cannot change permissions to the root tmp folder... tried talking to GoDaddy, but to no avail.

Do you know the command line i need to use to change the tmp directory to the one not at the root?

File manager you have in your godaddy portal also supports changing of CHMOD

For folders it should be: 755
For files: 644

Ivan,

I have changed permissions to 755/644 but it still doesn't work.

If you look closely, it fails to read/write to /home/content/31/10924531/tmp/ and not to /home/content/31/10924531/html/tmp/

Are you log and tmp folder paths set correctly at all in global configuration. If you can't save global configuration you can just edit configuration.php
