Most empty. Very few like: wpss_sess_status|s:2:“on”;

What could be the reason?

I have seen others with the same problem but no real solution.
They get the files in /home/domain/tmp
Mine is in /home/domain together with public_html etc.
That is very annoying.

I’ve made a scheduled task that runs every day to delete them.
But new ones are still going to wrong folder.

If there is no solution for all files I’d appreciate if somebody could point me in the right direction how to get them to the tmp folder.

Hello,

You should check that the directory for the temporary files is set correctly in Services ⇾ PHP-FPM Configuration: Session Options page.
