MySQL error: open basedir?

Seventh · 08-12-2004, 05:57 PM

I'm installing a blogger script for a friend, and I'm getting this error:

Code:

Warning: open_basedir restriction in effect. File is in wrong directory

The script runs fine on a different server, so I'm thinking it's something I have screwed up on my end. Any insight appreciated.

Thanks!

Check your php.ini and comment out the open_basedir line. open_basedir limits file operations to a single directory, which makes it an unwise configuration setting to use in a site-wide config file. But it does enhance security a lot.
