Newbie Help Cannot access Admin Will Not take password

Hi, This is new to me, so here I go. I have uploaded all the files required, the .htaccess files in the include and template folders did not upload.
I get a critical error. I also tried to logon to the admin page, and after entering the default password and username, I did not get access. I'm sure I've missed something, but have no clue what It may be.

Here is the error I get on my page.

A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Warning

Message: Unknown(): open(/tmp/sess_eef142bf5967adcbdada7fe57b472ac5, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2)

Filename: Unknown

Line Number: 0

A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Warning

Message: Unknown(): Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp)

Filename: Unknown

Line Number: 0

Help, please and thank you.

hi

are you sure your server supports PHP? (ask your admin)

Yes, all good. I discovered that the Carbon theme does not work with X2, as I was trying to use it.
Used the built in theme and all works well.

Thanks for your response.

This error is not related to themes or anything, this is sessions support on your server is broken. Php can't write to temp directory. Forward this to your hosting support and they will be able to fix it in no time.
