‘Rin’ & ‘Majin’ themes not working

All of the previous themes I tried out worked without problems in WP 1.5 (latest version), but I can’t get ‘Rin’ or ‘Majin’ (http://www.brokenkode.com/rin/) to work.
I even uploaded all the WP and theme files up again and installed the whole WP again, but again I only get that page full of errors:
####################################
Warning: main() [function.main]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(../header.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/www/htdocs/theblogg/) in /www/htdocs/theblogg/wp-content/themes/rin/index.php on line 1

Warning: main(header.php) [function.main]: failed to create stream: Operation not permitted in /www/htdocs/theblogg/wp-content/themes/rin/index.php on line 1

[Repeated errors]

######################################
I find this very strange as all the other themes I tried worked without problems.
My server is running PHP 4.3.1 and I ran phpinfo() and under ‘open_basedir’ says ‘no value’. I don’t know what else to try …

Thx

That sounds like a hosting restriction. Have you contacted them ? Who is your host ?

No, I haven’t contacted them yet, as everything worked well without problems on the other themes.

Try changing
include('header.php'); , include('sidebar.php'); and include('footer.php'); to
get_header(); get_sidebar() and get_footer(); respectively.

You’ll need to do this on all the php pages.

Thanks ‘ifelse’ – now it works!
If for some reason someone gets a page full of errors with the ‘rin’ theme, but all the other themes work without errors, change the following in all PHP files of the theme:
include('header.php'); --> get_header(); include('sidebar.php');--> get_sidebar(); include('footer.php'); --> get_footer();

Strange… I have used Manji2 and currently use Rin with zero problems.

It’s an environment config issue for the OP’s hosting companies server. 99.99% of users should find that Rin/Manji works fine out of the box.

However, the get_XX() syntax is the canonical way of retrieving theme pages for WP.

Thanks guys for that php support. When Khaled sees this I am sure he will fix it up. TY. Sorry to TOP for any inconvenience. Manji / Rin will be more robust as a result.

Khaled will see this sooner if it’s posted on the Rin/Manji support forums.
