files outside the root

[sjefjans]

I am trying to change the openbase_dir in the settings. I found out that I can use webspaceroot to set folders in the root. But what should I use to set a folder outside the httpdocs root folder? I want to place certain files containing passwords for example outside the httpdocs root.
Thanks!!

If I remember correctly,
{WEBSPACEROOT} is the /var/www/vhosts/domain.tld/
{DOCROOT} is /var/www/vhosts/domain.tld/httpdocs/

The default for open_basedir is {DOCROOT}:/tmp so changing that to {WEBSPACEROOT}:/tmp should do the trick.

But it sounds as though you already have? Check the created php.ini in /var/www/vhosts/domain.tld/etc (or is it conf?) to see exactly what's been added and you'll be able to tell what's happening more clearly and also phpinfo().

Does this make sense or have I got things backwards with the paths?
