Configuration Required

I've tried to install webauction-0.3.2.
So far, I have replaced the file Application.php.
I have come to the sequence:
Configuration Required
Data Face was unable to create the directory '/ tmp/6580e99e8fcdff70f5e7331a68d2e235' to
store its session files.
server running PHP in Safe Mode.
In 'data face' folders, I have manually added to the sensor '/ tmp/6580e99e8fcdff70f5e7331a68d2e235' so it looks like this.
/ dataface/tmp/6580e99e8fcdff70f5e7331a68d2e235 '
My index.php looks like this:

<php>display();
?>

What should I change and to what
I am very grateful for all the help I can get

Best regards

Magne

Unfortunately Safe mode puts restrictions on Xataface that makes it very difficult (perhaps impossible) to run. In particular, in Safe mode, the server automatically changes the owner of directories created. So when Xataface tries to create a directory to store its session files, the server pulls the rug out from under it.

The best solution is to get a server that doesn't run in safe mode (there are tons, and safe mode is deprecated anyways).

Another solution that may work (but may not) is to go through and change the permissions on each directory that xataface tries to create to give the webserver read/write access.

But your in for an uphill battle if you stick with safe mode.

Thank you! for your response.
It was something like that I expected, but I already pay for hosting, if not so much, on the server, which Is obviously not your problem.

Again thank you.

best regards,
