Help making session.save_path set to a writable folder
Hi,
I am trying to install ThinkUpApp on my server but it is giving me an error saying:
"The PHP session.save_path directory is not set. Please set it to a writable folder. Here's how to set that folder path and permissions." (I tried reading those help files but was getting lost)
I did some research and I think there is an easy fix and I just need to change something in the php.ini file. I don't PHP at all so would love any kind of 'find & replace and/or add XYZ' kind of instructions.
Other information that might help:
Everything is hosted on godaddy
I did set up a mysql database (I just think I need to connect it).
Please let me know if you need more information or need me to explain my problem differently.
Thank you for your time!

The "session.save_path" directory is set on Godaddy shared hosting and I don't believe that you can change it. Do you have a private server?

Thanks Dave.
I just have the middle tier deluxe plan and didn't specifically set up anything private so I don't think I do. http://www.godaddy.com/hosting/web-hosting.aspx?ci=76393
So I guessing this wouldn't work with GoDaddy?
When I click on phpAdmin in GoDaddy it takes me to the site where my database is. Here's a pic of the logo in case you recognize it .
Is there any easy to use hosting companies that you recommend that can do this?
Thanks,
Nico

Thanks Dave! I will reach out to them and see what they use. It's not the only thing I'm using hosting for but big enough to create another account some where else.
I appreciate it!
