Issues with PHP 5.3 and sessions folder

by

The fix: In your php.ini set session.gc_probability to 0

The cause
I believe I found the answer here http://somethingemporium.com/2007/06/obscure-error-with-php5-on-debian-ubuntu-session-phpini-garbage

Essentially, the garbage collection is set up to be done by cron jobs on some systems (i.e. Ubuntu/Debian). Some php ini executables like php-cli also try to do garbage collection and that results in the error you got.
