I installed drupal 4.6.5 on a linux server,
with Apache/2.0.49 (Fedora), PHP 4.3.4, MySQL 3.23.58

1. copy source code into web root path;
2. create database drupal in DB server;
3. change sites/default/setting.php

when i browse the page, i got error below:

Warning: ini_set(): A session is active. You cannot change the session module's ini settings at this time. in /home/allghost/public_html/drupal/sites/default/settings.php on line 120

i checked the sites/default/setting.php, found the source code like:

ini_set('session.save_handler', 'user');

Please help me asap!

I was getting the same problem. The default install on my machine (Fedora Core 4) had "session.auto_start = 1" set in the /etc/php.ini file. I changed this to "session.auto_start = 0" and the messages went away and Drupal started working.

I've got exactly the same problem but don't think I have access to the php.ini file because I'm on a shared hosting plan... any suggestions for how to remedy this situation?

Thanks!
