PHP Session issue preventing login
I'm having an issue after updating PHP preventing me from logging in. Would love a nudge in the right direction as soon as possible. Issues occurred most likely after I did a Yum Update.
The Apache logs show the following warning:
[Tue Dec 24 17:07:37.229077 2019] [php7:warn] [pid 1842] [client 10.0.X.X:49779] PHP Warning: session_regenerate_id(): Cannot regenerate session id - session is not active in [webroot]/system/classes/vendor/FileRun/Auth.php on line 70, referer: https://files.XXXXXXX.com/
another possibly relevant log entry generated from another site that uses sessions:
[Tue Dec 24 16:50:08.944200 2019] [php7:warn] [pid 1619] [client 10.0.X.X:65167] PHP Warning: session_start(): open(/var/opt/remi/php71/lib/php/session/sess_8lnkra33tffeu0le5ro23ss3n7, O_RDWR) failed: Permission denied (13) in [webroot2]/index.php on line 3
Could this be related to this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6821532/php-warning-permission-denied-13-on-session-start or this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47700336/php-7-2-warning-cannot-change-session-name-when-session-is-active?
Here are the top few rows of info.php:

Fixed. Took me way too long to figure it out. I needed to set the permissions for the root session directory /var/opt/remi/php71/lib/php/session to be writeable by webserver:DomainUsers since I use PHP_LDAP. The command
chmod webserver:DomainUsers /var/opt/remi/php71/lib/php/session
did the trick.
Hey, thanks benevolent person from three years ago for posting the solution!
Just solved my own problem... again, lol. Although I typoed the command, should have been:
chown webserver:DomainUsers /var/opt/remi/php71/lib/php/session
