All of a sudden, I can't edit my wiki. It's complaining about a loss of session data.
I'd seen this once before when for some reason my session save path directory (/var/lib/php4) had disappeared. I checkd phpinfo and that's what it thinks the session save path is, but the directory is there and the permissions don't seem to have changed. I changed the owner from root to the user which runs apache and nothing changes.
Any ideas on what else to check?
The version special page reports: # MediaWiki: 1.6.7 # PHP: 4.4.0-3ubuntu2 (apache2handler) # MySQL: 4.0.24_Debian-10ubuntu2.3-log

Just following up on my own post, figuring that I was being lazy I went to google AFTER posting. I guess I ran into this bug. http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2006-June/036115.html
I turned off preview on 1st edit and now I can edit again.
Has this been fixed already in the 1.6.x stream?
