    • problem with safe mode

    Posted by plison


    Hello,

    Like many others, I have problems installing Tiki with Safe Mode on. The installation takes place on a webserver, and I can't access it with SSH or telnet.

    As written in the manual, I installed locally PEAR, and peartest.php gave "Swoobadoo", so this part is correct.

    I also changed my settings in the tiki-db.php file.

    But I still get this error:

    text

    Warning: is_dir(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/html/vm008) in /home/var/www/html/vm008/tiki-install.php on line 120

    Fatal error: Undefined class name 'tikisetup' in /home/var/www/html/vm008/tiki-install.php on line 128

    I searched the problem for hours, but I don't see it. I'm quite a newbie in using PHP and MySQL, so ...

    Thank you !!

    I now succeeded in executing the sql creation script... so all the inscructions given in InstallTikiInSafeMode are done.

    ... But the problem stays the same: I can't execute tiki-install.php, I get the same error message...

    Do you see what it is?

    Thank you !!

    The problem was that I couldn't access the /tmp directory of the (distant) webserver for security reasons... so I changed in the php code all the references to the /tmp directory, and changed it to one of my local directory.

    Is it still complaining about the /tmp? I think you have to change this in the tiki-setup.php to point to your local tmp/
