+
+<p class="answer">... these are all related to the fact that PHP is failing to save 
+  "session" files on your hard disk (in a directory called /tmp).  Usually the 
+  reason is that you don't HAVE a directory called /tmp on your computer.  This 
+  is usually the case with Windows installations.
+
+<p class="answer">The solution is to fix the PHP setting for this path to point to a real directory.  You can do this in your php.ini file:</p>
+<p class="answercode">session.save_path = C:\temp</p>
+<p class="answer">or otherwise in a .htaccess file in your main moodle directory:</p>
+<p class="answercode">php_value session.save_path "/home/moodle/sessions"</p>
