    Hi,

    Before I did anything after installing and activating the plugin other than clicking settings, I get this warning in the dashboard:

    The following file was not found. Please make sure the file exists and has write permissions: /home/xxx/public_html/domain.com/

    I’m lost. What does it mean?

    Hi @mrsg101

    The plugin detects that your PHP SAPI is one of the following: cgi, cgi-fcgi, fpm-fcgi.

    When SAPI is some CGI, the Cookie Security section of this plugin store it settings in a file with a name defined in user_ini.filename directive.

    To see what is the value of user_ini.filename directive you can run <?php phpinfo(); ?> or <?php echo ini_get('user_ini.filename'); ?>. In your case it’s most probably an empty value.

    You can change that in your main php.ini like this:
    user_ini.filename = ".user.ini"
    or in your website:
    <?php ini_set('user_ini.filename', '.user.ini'); ?>
    Then create an empty file named as .user.ini in your website root folder.

    If you don’t intend to use the Cookie Security section of this plugin, you can ignore this warning message.

    Hi,

    Thank you for your reply. I followed your instructions which I felt were very clear. But I’m not sure it helped.

    Is the warning supposed to disappear then or not? Because it is still there.

    If that’s the issue and you followed the steps the warning should disappear.

    Can you tell what was the value of user_ini.filename before to apply the above steps, and what’s is it value after the fix.

    Also can you run <?php echo PHP_SAPI; ?> in a web page, not command-line. I just want to verify the PHP SAPI is some CGI interface.
