 * I have a VPS with the open basedir switched on.
    I can change the open basedir
   setting myself to switch it off. Can I do so without a problem? Does it have 
   any effect on my current site?

 * Hey Elodeweges,
 * In most cases it shouldn’t be a problem, however it your not 100% you might check
   with your server admin to double check…
 * Cheers~
