that session path should be writable yes?
thats a host problem yes?

Usually "localhost" is enough in the database field.

i then got this though:
Warning: Smarty error: validate: validator id 'v_step' is not registered. in /home/users/domain/libs/smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1088

Warning: Smarty error: validate: validator id 'v_lang' is not registered. in /home/users/domain/libs/smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1088

Warning: Smarty error: validate: validator id 'v_db_install' is not registered. in /home/users/domain/libs/smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1088
