Try this:

You forgot to add an exit() after the header declaration...

<?php 

session_start();
include("lib/config.php");

if(isset($_POST["tb_login"])){

    $myusername=$_POST['log_email'];
    $myuser_password=$_POST['log_password']; 

    if(!empty($myusername) && !empty($myuser_password)){
        $sql="SELECT * FROM act_member WHERE   password='".$myuser_password."' and               
        email='".$myusername."'";
        $result=mysql_query($sql);
        // Mysql_num_row is counting table row
        $count=mysql_num_rows($result);
        // If result matched $myusername and $mypassword, table row must be 1 row

        if($count==1){

            $rows=mysql_fetch_row($result);
            $_SESSION['user_id']= $rows[0];
            $_SESSION['mem_id']=$rows[1];
            $_SESSION['fname']=$rows[2];
            $_SESSION['lname']=$rows[3];
            header("Location: profile.php");    
            exit(); // <-------------------- add this else the page will not redirect and you will get a header error
        }
        else { 
            echo "sorry you entered wrong password or email id";
        }

    }
}

?>

you cannot use session_start() here, something is already outputting in /home/fundumob/public_html/app_create/index.php:35 as written in your warning

check it

if you are including any other file above <?php session_start();?>, make sure <?php session_start();?> exists in top most file on first line. Probably your config.php or some other file that you include.
