Hi,

As you mentioned, it is all about filepermissions.
So you must first figure out the users that are acting in name of the
programs. Or differently formulated, figure out as *which* user PHP
runs, and also for Perl.

It is possible they both run under Apache as www-data (Or 'apache', or
'nobody': whatever you/your distro choosed when you installed apache.)

If they are both the same user, you can read the sessionfiles.
If not, you have a few options:
1) Make them the same user.
2) Change the sessionstorage directory for PHP, and make sure you give
it such permissions both users can access it.

I would advise against changing the permissions for /tmp.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Erwin Moller
