Joomla installation error

[masterds]

I installed Joomla once already, but deleted it because of a small mistake a made when I was placing the files in my website.

Anyway, the 2nd time around whilst installing I came across an error. I had gone maybe 3 steps into the installation process (all was good), walked away for maybe 30-60 mins, and then I came across an error when I tried to continue.

I experienced the same error when I reuploaded the files again, and cannot get around it:

Warning: session_write_close() [function.session-write-close]: write failed: No space left on device (28) in /home/[INTENTIONALLY HIDDEN]/public_html/libraries/joomla/session/session.php on line 556

Warning: session_write_close() [function.session-write-close]: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct () in /home/[INTENTIONALLY HIDDEN]/public_html/libraries/joomla/session/session.php on line 556

This website is new, and I definite have enough space. Thank you

Even after you uninstalled, some components are left there. First delete all files of Joomla and then try to reinstall it.

You walked away for 30- 60 min, The session expired it seems. Try to start from the beginning.

There are some issues that the admins currently are working on.

I basically removed everything from the public_html folder. I even checked for hidden files. Everything was gone good sir.

@gsonline

Yes and I restarted/reuploaded the Joomla files several times. Each time the error came up first thing rather than 3-4 steps in.

Hopefully if this is the problem it is rectified posthaste.

Thank you everyone. I'm going to give it another shot shortly.

You shouldn't be deleting everything from the public_html folder.

The files are there for a purpose.

You should keep the cgi-bin, _vti* folders, .htaccess file

cgi-bin is useful when you are using the cgi scripts

_vti folders are a necessary part of the FrontPage Server Extension.

.htaccess is to allow per-directory access control

index.html --> This you can replace with yours.
