make sure all plugins are deactivated even if you have to rename the plugins folder
add this to the wp-config.php
define('WP_TEMP_DIR','/tmp');

Thanks! but:
1) HOW do I deactivate all the plugins? Does this mean I rename the plugins folder? mmm, I suppose not… What to do?
2) I can’t find the wp-config.php
I do find wp-config-sample.php
where can I find this wp-config.php?
and if I find it, I know my next Q will be, where do I paste this: define(‘WP_TEMP_DIR’,’/tmp’);
I’m learning! looking forward to a reaction.

if you can log in
admin – plugins
if not , ftp to site and rename plugins folder temporarily
2) I can’t find the wp-config.php
I do find wp-config-sample.php
It has to be there or you wouldn’t get that error
where do I paste this: define(‘WP_TEMP_DIR’,’/tmp’);
anywhere near the bottom of wp-config.php before the closing
?>

Does it make a difference to know that following this message:
Warning: file_exists() [function.file-exists]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/httpd/vhosts/takeadetour.eu/wp-config.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/httpd/vhosts/takeadetour.eu/httpdocs:/tmp) in /home/httpd/vhosts/takeadetour.eu/httpdocs/wp-load.php on line 29
it says this: (which is normal except for the fact that the button ‘wp-config file is not working):
There doesn’t seem to be a wp-config.php file. I need this before we can get started. Need more help? We got it. You can create a wp-config.php file through a web interface, but this doesn’t work for all server setups. The safest way is to manually create the file.
is it still strange that the wp-config.php is nowhere to be found?
thanks for your help again!

I was wrong, then.
