I have IIS 6 with PHP extension. ("inetinfo" directory is on disk C:\)

I have PHP in C:\PHP

I've created a "c:\tmp" directory.
I've created a system and environment variables "temp" and "tmp" that all point to "c:\tmp".
Using
>echo %temp%
and
>echo %tmp%
commands I've verified that they really point to c:\tmp

For "c:\inetinfo", "c:\php" and "c:\tmp" I've set the "Full control" right for "Everyone" and separately for all IIS accounts (IWAM and IUSR) for current and all nested levels files and folders.

The TestLink is set up as a virtual directory on the IIS. This directory has read and Execute rights. Setting the right Write as well gives nothing.

Which directory is used as a session info storage?

go to your php.ini to look for this info
