Problem "the Php Temporary Directory Is Not Set" -joomla 2.5.6

[SFL]

Dear Admins

 

I have a problem with my joomla installation I have warnings.

 

The PHP temporary directory is not set. The PHP temporary directory is the directory that PHP uses to store an uploaded file before Joomla! can access this file. Whilst the directory not being set isn’t always a problem, if you are having issues with manifest files not being detected or uploaded files not being detected, setting this in your php.ini file might fix the issue.”

 

How I can I find this file please?

 

Thanks very much!!

Found this on the Joomla forum

In the configuration.php file there's an attribute called $tmp_path. Set that to the temporary path that Joomla should use.

 

It's usually a subdirectory of the root called /tmp.

 

And I'd say that the problem is more likely the write permissions to that directory rather than the directory not existing.

Users don't have access to /tmp so you will have to change this to a path under your home folder.
