 * Hello,

   showing this message:
    Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: open(/
   var/lib/php-cgi/session/sess_2neo2ah063kqju6vsgsmducfq3, O_RDWR) failed: No such
   file or directory (2) in /home/storage/e/67/5f/megafocus/public_html/wp-content/
   plugins/coursepress/coursepress.php on line 168
 * I’m glad for the help.

 * Hey there Leandro,
 * How are you doing today?
 * This issue is not related to our plugin but rather to your server. The problem
   is most likely due to session folder not being writable (not having right permissions
   set on it).
 * You can fix this in 2 ways:
 * 1. Contact your hosting provider and ask them to change the permissions on the
   session folder
 * 2. I’ve made a mu-plugin for you that checks if session folder is writable and
   if it isn’t it creates another location in uploads folder where sessions are 
   being stored. You can download it [here](https://www.dropbox.com/s/ed4e7w20y8g5c5d/create-new-session-directory.php?dl=0).
   Once you do go to /wp-content/ and check if you have mu-plugins folder. If you
   do just paste that php file into the folder, if not create mu-plugins folder 
   and paste the file there. This plugin should work out of a box .
 * Hope this helps and have a great day!
 * Cheers,
    Bojan
