Hi there
I have a slight setup issue that has rendered me helpless:
I am running Postnuke .750 gold edition
PhotoShare 4.0.1
Your PHP server has "open_basedir" set to: /home/httpd/vhosts/xxx/httpdocs:/tmp
I have set my Folder for temporary files to /tmp, yet; This is not a directory or this folder is not writable by the webserver. Please check the permissions

I checked the permissions - I have another install Postnuke .750gold Photoshare ver 3.0.0 running on the same server with /tmp as temp dir.
I have tried to make a subdir in tmp - /tmp/photo - and given it the same permissions (chmod 777) but with the same results ?

Any ideas are welcome

The open_basedir setting is a server setting that makes it impossible for PHP/Photoshare to access files not below that directory.

See http://dk2.php.net/manual/en/features.safe-mode.php#ini.open-basedir

I understand that - my problem is that I use the /tmp dir in the 3.0 install -works perfect and am not able to use it in the 4.0.1 install ?
both running with postnuke .750 gold version

I have a problem that could be similar to yours.

Photoshare displays in the config screen the general php.ini settings. But I have also set a vhosts.conf. Photoshare ignores these settings, although the webserver is doing fine.

For example, I included /www/mydomain/httpddocs:/www/mydomain/uploaddocs in vhosts.
The Pagesetter Config has no problem using uploaddocs, while photoshare wouldn't.

J?rn, any ideas?

got it finally there was a small error in the vhosts.conf

another question: why does photoshare require writing permissions for "group" and "public" in the docs upload dir?
