I had errors like this when using session-auth the first time on a windows 
based webserver.
In php.ini there is the default of the temporary directory for session-data 
set to /tmp - which is not existent. I changed it to D:/temp (and created 
that before) and it went well.
But that's only for windows (I guess Linux has _always_ an existing  /tmp 
directory :-)
