Hi, I just upgraded a site form eZ Publish 3.10 to 4.0. I used this instructions http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/upgrading/upgrading_to_4_0/from_3_10_0_to_4_0_0 and the site now seem to work fine. I noticed only a permanent warning when enable the debug:

file_exists() [<a href='function.file-exists'>function.file-exists</a>]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/eztemplateautoload.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/vhosts/mysite/httpdocs:/tmp) in /var/www/vhosts/mysite/httpdocs/lib/eztemplate/classes/eztemplate.php on line 2216

Is there something to do to remove this warning? I don't understand it...

Thx and bye!

Hi Salvatore

It seems like your PHP is configured with the open_basedir setting. See http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.safe-mode.php#ini.open-basedir for more information.
I advice you to turn open_basedir off.

Thank you Kristof,

I'm in a virtual host environment, and there is the following generated value in the vhost.conf file:

php_admin_value open_basedir "/var/www/vhosts/mysite/httpdocs:/tmp"

It's better that I don't modify this value... Do you think I can ignore safetly the warning? Basedir is "locked" on root directory of my site, for eZ publish should be enough... It's correct?

Thx and bye!

According to the PHP warning you got, it won't be good to leave open_basedir on. So better to turn it off.
