    I did:
    Install a new wordpress site. In general settings, i changed WordPress Address and the Site Address from http://my-site.com to http://www.my-site.com (adding the www)

    I saw: This error message:

    Warning: is_writable() [function.is-writable]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/) is not within the allowed path(s): (/usr/wwws/users/distinki:/usr/www/users/distinki:/usr/home/distinki:/usr/local/rmagic:/usr/www/users/he/_system_:/usr/share/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/share/www) in /usr/www/users/distinki/wp-admin/includes/misc.php on line 133

    Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /usr/www/users/distinki/wp-admin/includes/misc.php:133) in /usr/www/users/distinki/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 890

    I expected: Things to work fine as I have installed numerous blogs before. The system logged me out, and once logged in again, it all seem to be working fine. Yet I would like to know what is the reason for the error message. And why in the past the www was the automatically?

    regards

    There was probably just a brief cache conflict caused by a plugin after making the URL adjustment.

    And why in the past the www was the automatically?

    It depends on how you visit the URL when you install WordPress. If you install it via domain.com/wp-admin/install.php (without the www), the blog will set itself to domain.com (without the www).
