Jeffrey,

If you want to run scripts with an add-on php instead of the base php you need the path to that php. I’d give that for the solarspeed, but I’ve got to run and it’s not hard to figure out. That can cause some weirdness if you are expecting to get the php version from the add-on package (like the excellent one from SolarSpeed!). do a “php –V” to get the version (I think that’s the correct command).

The weirdness of php on the command line seems to never end. J

                Thanks,

                                -Stephanie

Hi Stephanie,

I think that you have hit the nail on the head. I seem to have two problems.

1. open basedir stopping crons running - I think that almost certainly that your suggestion below will exactly sort that out, thanks.

2. the GUI acting screwy when adding open basedir statements. I might have to just close my eyes and have another espresso and pretend this doesn't happen!

Many thanks for your input.

Regards

Jeffrey

Jeffrey,

I had a very similar situation. Running php from the command line from root looks for /root/php.ini as well as the usual other places.  Have you tried to run it explicitly  as php –c <path to php.ini you want to use>?

Did you change the open_basedir in /etc/php.ini or did you change it on a per-site basis in the vhost settings or are using suphp which puts a php.ini in the ftp root of a site? Running php from the command line can be fraught with traps when php.ini settings under apache may be set in the apache config files, /etc/php.ini or in a /home/sites/<fqdn>/php.ini.

It’s so easy for one to load different php.ini setting  than one may expect…

                Thanks,

Hi Stephanie,

No, the php.ini's seem in the right place. Clearly open basedir is working sometimes or the php sites would die.

I'm most concerned about the unpredictable nature of changes made in the GUI. It's OK if I can remember that whatever I add in the GUI not only vanished but also overwrites anything else I already entered, Truth is I'm a bit ancient and remembering my name can be a challenge some mornings. Also the GUI clearly shows open basedir ion effect on the sites which is is, kinda.

Regards

Jeffrey

Jeffrey,

Do you have a php.ini in your home dir? In the default path? (echo $PATH)? If do rename or delete it. Just a guess and a scar left on my back from a few years ago. Hope this helps.

     Thanks,
             -Stephanie

Hi Guys,
I'm experiencing some problems with open basedir on a brand new install of BO on an Aveturine box over at Chris's. This was a fresh install with the sites exported from the old box and imported to the new one. I am understating the difficulty Chris had here - I'm surprised he's still talking to me really.
To give an example of the issue - I have a php heavy site which is working fine, except that when I try to run a file on that site from a cron I get an open basedir error. I have tried this either as siteadmin or as root. The GUI for the site says that the open basedir is open OK. 
So I go to the GU for the BO install and add the site/web folder to the open basedir box and click OK. The setting I have just made disappears from the GUI but is there in the php.ini. And everything works.
On to site two - same software and same problem. I go to the Server Admin GUI and add the site/web folder to the open basedir box, click OK and the settings disappear. Site two now works, site one stops working. In the php.ini the open basedir statement for site 1 has vanished.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Regards
Jeffrey
