Upload Problem: Open_basedir Restriction In Effect

[bwaxse]

Hello all, I've been reading all the upload problem posts and still can't determine how to fix my upload problem. Here is my php script:

 

>if (is_uploaded_file($temp_file_name)) {
		if (move_uploaded_file($temp_file_name, $upload_dir.$file_name)) {
			$log = $upload_log_dir.$y."_".$m."_".$d.".txt";					//Log File Name
			$fp = fopen($log,"a+");											//Set File Pointer
			fwrite($fp,"\n$ip | $file_name | $screen_size | $date | $time");	//Write File
			fclose($fp);													//Close File Pointer
			$_SESSION['result'] = "green";
			return TRUE;
		} else {
			$_SESSION['result'] = "brown";
			return FALSE;

 

The returns error that I get is:

 

"Warning: move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/upload/20.pdf) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/******:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp) in /home/*****/public_html/account/scripts/upload.php on line 202"

 

I've kinda picked up on the fact that I need to change some settings in htaccess?

 

Thanks so much guys - You're the best!

Hi Bennett,

 

Welcome to the forums

 

You are trying to upload to "/upload/20.pdf" which is not allowed. You neet to set it to upload to "/home/*****/public_html/upload/20.pdf" (or wherever you want to upload it to that is in your allocated space.

 

If you change the variable $upload_dir to include the full path, you should be fine.

Thanks a bunch!

 

I can upload the files now but when I try to write to the log file I get another error. Any ideas?

 

Warning: fopen(/home/******/public_html/upload/upload_logs/2006_09_28.txt) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/******/public_html/account/scripts/upload.php on line 204

 

Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/******/public_html/account/scripts/upload.php on line 205

 

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/******/public_html/account/scripts/upload.php on line 206

 

I set the permission of /upload/ to 777 but I still get the same thing. Do I need to do this to another folder/file or are fwrite and fclose allowed?

 

Thanks again,

 

Bennett

Have you changed the permissions to upload_logs ?
