 * We’ve recently moved our site to a new host – we have a number of sites with 
   this host and haven’t experienced issues, though this site is the only using 
   this plugin. we’re seeing the following error that prevents the site (frontend
   and backend) from loading.
 *     ```
       Warning: session_start(): user session functions not defined in /srv/bindings/a7a9866c98a7412dbac50052c270ff23/code/wp-content/plugins/favorites/app/Bootstrap.php on line 83 Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module: user (path: ) in /srv/bindings/a7a9866c98a7412dbac50052c270ff23/code/wp-content/plugins/favorites/app/Bootstrap.php on line 83 
       ```
   
 * disabling and re-enabling the plugin doesn’t help. any ideas appreciated.
