Warning: tempnam() [function.tempnam]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp) is not within

Hi Guys

 

I am trying to determine if I have a problem with my 1.6.0.9 Prestashop environment.

 

If I turn on debug mode, I see the following message when I start the front end:

 

Warning: tempnam() [function.tempnam]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/f-web/fb/c2/greghanley.com.au/:/usr/local/lib/php/__applications/:/home/chroot_bind/php/php5/usr/local/lib/php/) in /home/f-web/fb/c2/greghanley.com.au/public/www/classes/PrestaShopAutoload.php on line 151

 

I'm somewhat of a newbie so can somebody explain to me what the above message actually means and do I have some sort of issue?

 

Thanks for your help.

 

Cheers

Greg

Do you have any issues with your shop?

 

The message means that you do not have rights to access tmp directory. 

This directory can be used for files/images upload.

If you can create products and upload images without any problems then maybe everything is okay.

Hi Simonas

 

I was trying to track down an issue that was causing me a lot of stress and it ended up being due to corrupt cookies. Once I deleted all cookies related to my domain from the browser I was using (Firefox) the issue went away.

 

To answer your question, the Prestashop environment is working fine even with those messages being displayed when in debug mode.....

this message is related to chown / chmod for /tmp directory

script trying to access /tmp directory for some files (save), and cant do that because www user doesnt have permissions to do that.

Hi Vekia

 

I just checked the settings for the /tmp folder and they are:

 

777

drwxrwxrwx

 

Is this correct?

 

Cheers
