Php Error (help!)

[roadmap]

I'm getting the error below and I was wondering if someone could take a look at it and tell me what I'm doing wrong to cause it. I have changed my username to just name for security reasons.

Thanks.

 

Warning: fopen(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/config.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/name/:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/usr/local/sqmail:/usr/local/cpanel/base/3rdparty/squirrelmail:/tmp) in /home/name/public_html/sitebuilder/sitebuilder/admin/default.php on line 143

If you're using "fopen('/config.php')", then you're telling your script to open a file that resides in the root of the filesystem, which is out of bounds forregular users. If you change it to "fopen('config.php')" or even "fopen('/home/yourusername/path/to/config.php')" the error should go away.

 

Hope this helps.

I had to re-install it and start over but thanks for the quick response.
