Thanks to all!* Open_basedir restricts where you can access files (see http://www.php.net/features.safe-mode and search for 'open_basedir' to tell you exactly what it does). If you are in this folder: /home/httpd/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs you are trying to include '../inc/siteconfig.inc.php' so that means you are trying to access: /home/httpd/vhosts/domain.com/inc/siteconfig.inc.php which isn't in the open_basedir list (so php is stopping you). Adjust the path to the 'siteconfig.inc.php' file and you should be right to go. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
