    It happens in version 1.9.8.3. It's a bug in file lib/init/initlib.php, in line 101. The function tempdir() for returning system defined temporary directory calls tempnam(false, ). This is obviously wrong, as the firs parameter is not a boolean value, but the directory where the temporary filename will be created. The problem can be patched in a quick and dirty manner by modifying the call on the line 101 to tempnam('/tmp',). Obviously, this is not the proper way to patch the bug, but it illustrates the point.

    I still get the same errors in version 1.9.9!

    I just googled for some help on:

    tikiwiki Warning: tempnam() function.tempnam: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp) is not within the allowed path(s):

    I see that the web is strewn with many broken websites showing the same error.
    Presumably, these are the multitudes who never got beyond this point in their installation.
    I wonder if I will?

    I find it hard to believe that a simple bug like this which shows up in most installations is still there?
    What gives?

    If you can change the hosting site to use PHP 4 instead of PHP 5 this may solve the problem. It worked for me.

    Image
    Copy to clipboard
    function tempdir() {
static $tempdir;
if (!$tempdir) {
$tempfile = tempnam(false,'');
$tempdir = dirname($tempfile);
@unlink($tempfile);
}
return $tempdir;
}



    Well guys, this is true! When we replace this code

    Image
    Copy to clipboard
    tempnam(false,'')

    by that

    Image
    Copy to clipboard
    tempnam('/tmp','')

    all does work 😀

    v1.9.8.3
