open_basedir string

Limit the files that can be opened by PHP to the specified directory-tree.

 

When a script tries to open a file with, for example, fopen or gzopen, the location of the file is checked. When the file is outside the specified directory-tree, PHP will refuse to open it. All symbolic links are resolved, so it's not possible to avoid this restriction with a symlink.

 

The special value . indicates that the directory in which the script is stored will be used as base-directory.

 

Under Windows, separate the directories with a semicolon. On all other systems, separate the directories with a colon. As an Apache module, open_basedir paths from parent directories are now automatically inherited.

 

The restriction specified with open_basedir is actually a prefix, not a directory name. This means that "open_basedir = /dir/incl" also allows access to "/dir/include" and "/dir/incls" if they exist. When you want to restrict access to only the specified directory, end with a slash. For example: "open_basedir = /dir/incl/"

How/where can I edit "open_basedir = /dir/incl/" on a virtual server?

see my post: http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?act...ndpost&p=273407

 

modifying general.php isn't the way to go IMHO.

 

cheers,
