If while testing locally on your Windows machine you get many warnigns like:

Warning: session_start()... failed: No such file or directory
Warning: session_start()...: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent 
etc.

you need to configure properly the session.save_path in your php.ini file.

Set session.save_path to an existing folder on your PC.
For example: session.save_path="C:\Temp";
