[resolved] warnings after change of provider (3 posts)

    hi,
    I've got file/directory access problems during the change of the host.

    this is the url of the old host (media temple):
    blog.metronomic-family.com

    and here's new host (all-inkl.com):
    blog.metronomic-family.com.dd24312.kasserver.com

    You'll see, that there are several warnings on the new site and one main image (on the top of the site) is now missing.

    Here's the first warning:
    Warning: is_dir() [function.is-dir]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/) is not within the allowed path(s): (/www/htdocs/w00c4d5c/:/tmp:/usr/bin:/www/htdocs/w00c4d5c:/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/share/php) in /www/htdocs/w00c4d5c/wp-includes/functions.php on line 1746

    I've already checked, if I really uploaded all data to the new host, and all the files are there. Is this an access rights thing?

    could anybody help?

    thanks in advance

    open_basedir restriction in effect
    this is a host "security" feature

    ask the host how you can get around it - like can you move the tmp folder and make it work

    thx samboll.

    the problem was an old "upload_path" value in the mysql table "wp_options". just had to update the value to the new path, that was requested in the warnings.

    fixed now...
