RE: Server upgrades/hiccups/don't panic - Professor_Tesla - 15.11.2007

I tried to suggest a feature by clicking "Report Issue" and this is what I got:
SYSTEM WARNING: main(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/var/www/includes/classes/JavaScript.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/vhosts/bugs.renegadeprojects.com/httpdocs:/tmp)

P.S: I did it in both Firefox and Internet Explorer and got the same result.

Yeah, yeah, got the same when I tried to update an issue. Guess our god is more of a demi-god. Arf

Thanks for reporting, though.

I got the same problem, solution: http://www.gadberry.com/aaron/2006/02/09/plesk_vhost
The HE FAQ has also an article about custom server configs...


RE: Server upgrades/hiccups/don't panic - DCoder - 15.11.2007

Hm. Thanks for the vote of confidence, Ren.

Anyway, gordon, that's not exactly what the problem is. I know what the problem is, but it'll take me some time to find the actual culprit. Problem is:
In httpdocs/core.php:
<?php
$t_core_path = './core';
include($t_core_path . '/stuff.php');
?>
, and in httpdocs/core/stuff.php:
<?php
include('blargh.php');
?>
One would assume that the second snippet includes httpdocs/core/blargh.php . It does not. It wants to include httpdocs/blargh.php . This is NOT PHP5's fault. According to php devs, that's intentional. I have considered several solutions, all of which seem suboptimal. For now, I added the whole directory hierarchy to include_path which bloated it to 2300 chars. I will see if I can find a better fix.

The problem is not that we don't know how to turn off or modify safe mode or open_basedir restrictions...the problem is that they make sense, and that we shouldn't have to turn them off. (After all, the error pops up for a reason - the script is doing something bad. Just turning off the safety measures to allow it would be a Westwood/Microsoft kind of solution.)

I showed confidence and gave praise above. I got a dozen red lines of errors in response Tongue


RE: Server upgrades/hiccups/don't panic - gordon-creAtive - 15.11.2007

I had to turn of the basedir stuff in order to get MediaWiki 1.11 work - is there a better solution? How did you solve this DCoder?


RE: Server upgrades/hiccups/don't panic - DCoder - 15.11.2007

We didn't need to mess with modenc's open_basedir at all, it worked fine from the beginning. On that vhost, include_path is ".:/var/www/includes" and open_basedir is "/var/www/vhosts/modenc.renegadeprojects.com/httpdocs:/tmp".


RE: Server upgrades/hiccups/don't panic - gordon-creAtive - 15.11.2007

Thx, I'll try it!


RE: Server upgrades/hiccups/don't panic - Bobingabout - 20.11.2007

ummm... the navbar is displaying all its links vertically, at the top of every page...

Edit: perhaps its just me, IT services seem to have blocked everything on renegadeprojects except for the forums Mad


RE: Server upgrades/hiccups/don't panic - DCoder - 20.11.2007

Good for them... yeah, that's cause you are not receiving http://www.renegadeprojects.com/navbar.css which is responsible for beautifying it.


RE: Server upgrades/hiccups/don't panic - Bobingabout - 20.11.2007

indeed....... thats blocked............................

i supose you can delete the ip address exception then...


RE: Server upgrades/hiccups/don't panic - Renegade - 20.11.2007

Given that our site includes neither porn nor warez, it's interesting that we got blocked...guess we showed up quite often in their logs.


RE: Server upgrades/hiccups/don't panic - Bobingabout - 21.11.2007

indeed, daily.

my guess would "games".

whats most interesting is how they blocked EVERYTHING except the forum, qdb, modenc, etc, but not he forum.


RE: Server upgrades/hiccups/don't panic - DCoder - 21.11.2007

"How" is simple. It's "why" that matters.

(I removed SpecialBob today, just FYI.)


RE: Server upgrades/hiccups/don't panic - gordon-creAtive - 21.11.2007

What/Who is "speacialbob"?
