file exist error

Need help, my site getting the following error


Warning: file_exists(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(../ad_network_ads_346.txt) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/httpd/vhosts/intellect-servers.com/httpdocs:/tmp) in /home/httpd/vhosts/intellect-servers.com/httpdocs/ad_network_346.php on line 36


This is a newly setup site... site url http://www.intellect-servers.com

Thanks

 

Looks like the file ad_network_ads_346.txt is in an invalid directory. Try putting it into the same directory as ad_network_346.php and editing it accordingly.

So, any references to it in ad_network_346.php would be "./ad_network_ads_346.txt"

Sorted?

 

But they are the same location....

 

you probably got another (backup?) file in a directory higher. remove that one.

if that fails: change this block

	$ad_file = 'ad_network_ads_123.txt';
	for ($i = 0; $i <= 11; $i++) {
		$p = substr ('../../../../../../../../../../', 0, $i * 3);
		if (file_exists ($p . $ad_file)) {
			$ad_file = $p . $ad_file;
			break;
		}
	}

PHP:

with this

        $ad_file = '/apache/somesite/htdocs/ad_network_ads_123.txt';

PHP:

or what ever real path your file is at. Will save your server for looking thru a lot of dirs if you already knew where the file would be.
