symfony2 error: sessionHandler::read()
10,869
Solution 1
I am running Fedora 18 with PHP 5.4 (using php-fpm) + nginx and I faced similar problem. Symfony was complaining that it was unable to create a session file called /var/lib/php/session/sess_
I gave apache rwx permission to /var/lib/php/session using the following acl command and it solved the problem:
sudo setfacl -m apache_username:rwx /var/lib/php/session
apache_username is either apache, www-data depending on your linux distribution, it can be also a custom user
Solution 2
just have to add/change these 2 lines in app/config/config.yml to fix it:
framework:
session:
handler_id: session.handler.native_file
save_path: "%kernel.root_dir%/sessions"

ztirom over 10 yearsIf I got everything at the comments below the question right, the author has no privileges to make changes at 'his' server, because he works with a shared hosting solution.

Raptor over 10 years@ztirom Yes you are right. This will work if the user has root access.

sudo setfacl -m apache /var/lib/php/5.5/session
