Re: Cant get pass GO!!!

Newbie is where you start....Not where you STAY!!!
Just was introduced to Joomla and cant sleep now!!! I've spend up to $4,000 to have websites build and
none came close to what RT has to offer.
I'm installing Versatility III using the rocket launcher and cant get pass 2 problems.
Pre-installation check
Joomla! 1.0.12 Stable [ Sunfire ] 25 December 2006 01:00 UTC
Required Settings Check:
1. "Session save path" Not set unwriteable
2. Joomla! RG_EMULATION setting is `ON` instead of `OFF` in file globals.php
`ON` by default for compatibility reasons
Please provide me with step by step instructions and where I can find folders/files to solve this issue.
I'm new to building so please keep it SS (simple stupid)
There's a wealth of information in the forums and I'm searching them for the answer also!!!
Thank you in advance

Complete the installation regardless of those warnings. Then...
1.) Use FTP to create a new folder in your account root (see the following directory structure)
/home/youraccount/public_html/[your-joomla-files-are-here]
/home/youraccount/[sessions]
This new folder (sessions) is one level up from your joomla install. It is outside of public_html and therefore not publicly viewable.
Open up (or create a new one if none exists) .htaccess file which is found in your public_html folder and add the following line at the end of it:php_value session.save_path /home/youraccount/sessions/
Then open up globals.php (found in your joomla root - directly under the public_html folder) and look for the following line:It should be around line 24. Change it to :define( 'RG_EMULATION', 1 );
define( 'RG_EMULATION', 0 );

Now that I have completed your instructions is it a way that I can check PROBLEM:1
to see if it was executed correctly (PROBLEM: 2 is OK)?

In your admin panel, navigate to System>System Info (top menu)
Click on the "Permissions" tab - Say no to Internet Explorer 6.

Hello,
I am having the same problem listed above:
I have found theGollumX wrote:Complete the installation regardless of those warnings. Then...
1.) Use FTP to create a new folder in your account root (see the following directory structure)
/home/youraccount/public_html/[your-joomla-files-are-here]

Open up (or create a new one if none exists) .htaccess file which is found in your public_html folder and add the following line at the end of it:php_value session.save_path /home/youraccount/sessions/

define( 'RG_EMULATION', 0 );
I found the htaccess file, but am not clear on where I should insert the php_value session.save_path /home/youraccount/sessions/ code. Can you provide more detail on where this goes. I am using the code editor once I select the file to insert the code above.
Thank you.

Put it on a line of it's own after everything else in your .htaccess file. If it doesn't work, paste your .htaccess here so i can see. - Say no to Internet Explorer 6.

Ok
This is what I have in my "FILE MANAGER"
"
"
Mail
Public_htp
Public_HTML
Session
tmp
www
The location where my JOOMLA is installed is on a "add on" domain stored inside of Public_HTML
Example:
"
"
Mail
Public_htp
Public_HTML
media
modules
"my addon domain"
templates
Session
tmp
www
Do I have my session folder in the correct location?
Which .htaccess file should I insert the code into , the Public_HTML or "my add on domain" .htaccess?
All of my .htaccess files are empty (no text or code)...
And when I insert the code into all the empty .htaccess files I get this message:
# File modified on Thu Jul 26 07:39:12 2007 by server
# For security reasons, mod_php is not used on this server. Use a php.ini file for php directives
# php_value session.save_path /home/"myaccount"/sessions/
Thanks for the help
