I know this thread is a little old but for anyone who still need a solution, check to see if the "tmp" directory used by the system is present
For cPanel users, make sure the /home/$username/tmp or /home/$username/etc (credit: https://forums.cpanel.net/threads/phpmyadmin-error.610207/post-2492163) are present. If not, create them or else sessions will not be created for any phpmyadmin user.
