Open Basedir Error

[medro]

I started to have a big problem with an open basedir error.

If i call a specific PHP Script, my system says:

Warning: main(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/webEdition/we/include/we_showDocument.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/httpd/vhosts/antiseptica.info/httpdocs:/tmp) in /home/httpd/vhosts/antiseptica.info/httpdocs/auswahl-flaechen.php on line 16

I run Plesk 7.5.3 on a Suse 9.1 System.

You can check the PHP.info for that domain at:

http://www.antiseptica.info/phpinfo.php

Please help !

Plesk configures Apache in a way so PHP can only do file-access in users webroot and /tmp. This is called the open.basedir.

So there is no problem with Plesk here ... you are just trying to run a script which demands more access than it gets.

So you'll have to wonder .. WHY isn't the homedir + /tmp enough ??? Do you really want a script to have more access to the file system ?

I hear ya, but, sometimes it's needed. Trust the user and the scripts you install b/f doing this. To answer the question:

You will need to create a vhost.conf file from a text file and put it in the domains' conf directory. vhost.conf should be something like this:

<Directory /home/httpd/vhosts/yourdomain.com/httpdocs>
php_admin_value safe_mode 0
</Directory>

Then run:
/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/websrvmng -u --vhost-name=domain.com

Then restart apache.

That should do it. Sometimes it depends on the php release you are running, you might need to use 'none' instead of '0'.....

Thanks for the try, but it doesn´t work:

And this is, what the logfile says:

It's not about safe mode (check your main php.ini file if it is disabled anyway) ... but you'll have to override / disable the open.base_dir.

Not sure how to do this though.
