Anyone figure out the open_basedir restriction problem

[breun]

I think now the only problem left is with your include code. What is the line you use in your PHP script?

It isnt my script, but i know it works with apache on windows and it worked on a previous host i had that used cpanel.

Code: Select all

require_once('inc/config.php');

You can see the entire index file here.
http://jspwebhost.com/domains/index.txt
And the config.php file is here.
http://jspwebhost.com/domains/inc/config.txt

Looking at the error it seems like config.php is trying to include /mysql.class.php. I don't know where it gets the leading / though. I think this may be a question for a PHP programmers forum...

[jim0615]

There is no leading / in the source for the config.php file but it does have its own include statement for mysql.class.php.

Code: Select all

require_once('mysql.class.php');
require_once('funcs.php');
require_once('tpl.class.php');

This isn't the only php program im having a problem with, i also can't run Cerberus helpdesk. It gives the same errors, i just figured this program would be easier to look at.

Is there a way to disable this restriction on the whole server perhaps? So that including files would not be such an issue.

Setting open_basedir server-wide won't help, because every httpd.include sets a vhost specific open_basedir which would override the server-wide value you'd put in /etc/php.ini. You'll have to use php_admin_value open_basedir none in vhost.conf for every domain you wan't to disable the open_basedir restriction on. Setting this might enable your clients to read each other's files, so make sure you know what you are doing.
