First ensure your session.save_path in your php.ini is set correctly

then check directory permission

sudo chmod 777 /var/lib/php/session/

Finally, clear everything (cache, cookies ..) at browser end, refresh and check

If you make any change in php.ini, restart apache

    I have installed xampp on ubuntu. I can access on firefox localhost/xampp. However when I go to phpmyadmin on the left it comes up with "phpMyAdmin - Error" Then underneath that it has this: "Error during session start; please check your PHP and/or webserver log file and configure your PHP installation properly. Also ensure that cookies are enabled in your browser."
