Permission denied: session/ is not writable. - Michael Lownie - 2011-06-27

I've seen similar questions but no answer that quite fits my problem. I really did search! I've done this before with no problem although it's been a while. (Has something been reset?)
I am trying to post images into an article. For some reason when I try to browse through the add image tab, I keep getting this "Permission denied: session/ is not writable."
I checked permissions on my image albums and they all say readable and writable.
If I try using the Tiny Zenpage I can see my album images but nothing happens when I click on the image to add it. Hmmm.

Any simple answer to what's holding me up? Thanks in advance.

"sessions" are something managed by your server and PHP install. It is done by keeping some data in files somewhere on the server. I think (but do not remember) that these session folders are outside the WEB root of the application.

I suspect that there have been some changes on the server with regard to file security. Probably something you should ask your provider about.

thank you; I'll look into that!

thank you guys; I ended up just copying the url and pasting it where I wanted it. That got around the problem.
