Initializing System Variables

[Andrew B]

Hi

We have changed developers and our new developer is going to start by fixing some basic faults on our website. I received the email below and was wondering whether anybody could shed some light on it as I am unable to contact the previous developer.

Email below from new developer

What I did?
1. Created the database using the backup
2. Copied all the files into document root directory as mywebsite
3. modified the functionConnect .php to point to the correct database
4. Loaded the home page (index.php) as below
5. http://localhost:8080/mywebsite/homedir/public_html/test/index.php
6. The page loads with lots of errors. All of them are about not initializing the session variables.

I am not sure whether I am missing anything or not. This is same code base which is running in the hosted environment which shows no errors.

Any help would be much appreciated

create a file phpinfo.php. code is as below:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

and check if your session is permitted

I don't particularly understand your question. Could you elaborate?
