GoDaddy web hosting compatibility?

Hello, I just finished developing a site locally for a new client who has GoDaddy hosting. Stupidly I forgot to check compatibility with Perch as I assumed someone as big as GoDaddy would be supported.

I loaded the website files and database and the frontend of the website is actually working fine, but the backend has all sorts of errors. I then uploaded the compatibility test and realised there are issues. I checked the PHP version and set it to 5.4 but still get the errors. See screenshots:

Are these potentially GoDaddy hosting configuration issues fixable or can I not run a Perch website with the clients GoDaddy hosting?

It just looks like you need to configure PHP sessions - usually the session.save_path option. It may be in your hosting control panel. If not, you'll need to ask GoDaddy.

Thanks, set the session.save_path option and everything is working.
