MAMP Session Already started.

Hi There,

I really love the idea of MAMP as its got a nice development Environment and its local to your machine. I absolutely hate it how it reacts slightly different to a hosting server.

e.g. It never used to display errors (Changed php.ini file to fix) PHP Redirects didn't work (Changed php.ini file to fix)

This latest one is really bugging me:

Notice: A session had already been started - ignoring session_start() in /Users/thebegerks/Desktop/DESIGN WORK/Clients/Web Devlopment/wwwroot/PHP/DJRequests/admin/functions.php on line 2

Why can't I just not get these messages and it comes out of the box set up correctly?

session_start(); 
$_SESSION['username'] = isset($_SESSION['username']) ? $_SESSION['username'] : false; 
$_SESSION['id'] = isset($_SESSION['id']) ? $_SESSION['id'] : false;  
$_SESSION['nickname'] = isset($_SESSION['nickname']) ? $_SESSION['nickname'] : false; 
$_SESSION['rank'] = isset($_SESSION['rank']) ? $_SESSION['rank'] : false;

That is code I have on the pages that require Sessions ect...
