I get the same problem but with PHP 5.3.0, with the exact same 
description. It's pretty weird for me, I haven't figured out 
why it doesn't work.

phpMyAdmin needs to call session_write_close() at the end of the session it uses to be compatible with PHP 5.3/APC

It's because APC doesn't handle the include/require path correctly. For example, an example of a typical include is:

require_once './libraries/common.inc.php';

APC doesn't work properly and, in my case, regards '.' as the apache directory instead of the current one. Whilst this seems to be an APC problem phpmyadmin could help by (1) not gratuitously using require_once when require would be better and (2) using the full path when possible, i.e. doing something like:

require dirname(__FILE__) . '/subdir/file_to_include.php' ;

This may help.

The solution is simply to add this line to php.ini and restart the apache server: 
apc.cache_by_default = 0 

Regards!

According to <https://bugs.php.net/69618>, APC support has been
discontinued in favor of OPcache, APCu, the session upload
progress API and WinCache. Therefore this issue won't get fixed.
