I have just downloaded and installed CMS. Install went fine, I was able to set-up a section and some pages for testing. I run into a server error when trying to upload a test image:

Warning: getimagesize(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp/php6zv3HD) is not within the allowed path(s): (/vservers/fametrics) in /vservers/fametrics/htdocs/cmsAdmin/lib/menus/default/uploadForm_functions.php on line 70 Warning: getimagesize(/tmp/php6zv3HD): failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in /vservers/fametrics/htdocs/cmsAdmin/lib/menus/default/uploadForm_functions.php on line 70 Warning: move_uploaded_file(): open_basedir restriction in effect.

Paths are all correct, so I'm thinking it's something the server is belching at. I'm sure all that mess is trying to tell me something, but I'm not sure what! Any Ideas?

Hi Cathy, welcome to the CMS Builder forum! :)

It sounds like you're web host is mis-configured. Email them this and see if they can help:


"Hello web host,

When I upload files with PHP I get this error:

Warning: move_uploaded_file(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp/php6zv3HD) is not within the allowed path(s): (/vservers/fametrics)

Can you fix it so PHP can read files uploaded by PHP? Or let me know how can I disable the open_basedir? Thanks!


If you're web host can't help we'll try to find a way to work around it by modifying the software.

Hope that helps! Let me know how it goes. :)

Dave, here a followup on the upload error for anyone else who might be having the same issues. Your were 100% correct on the solution.

The host didn't initially want to disable the open_basedir and wanted it merely set up a tmp directory under the domain (it's shared hosting). That didn't work. After some persuasion I was able to to convince them to disable the open_basedir and all is working fine now.

Thanks for your help.
