open_basedir error

[Alvaro G Vicario]

This is the open_basedir restriction of my site:

php_admin_value open_basedir /tmp/:/home/site/

All my PHP files are under /home/site/htdocs. However, I get lots of errors
like:

Warning: open_basedir restriction in effect. File is in wrong directory in
/home/site/.......

I'm 100% sure it's related to open_basedir because disabling it solves the
problem. The funniest thing is:

# Excerpt from /home/site/htdocs/lib/inc/foo.php
include_once('file.inc.php'); # Error unless no open_basedir
include_once('/home/site/htdocs/lib/inc/file.inc.php'); # Works fine

I'm including exactly the same file in the same location so paths are
correct! I added "." to open_basedir but didn't work.

Why???

Thank you in advance,

Is your open_basedir /home/site ot /tmp/:home/site ???
The first would be logical to me, the second I don't understand.
I have specified my open_base_dir in my php.ini as /base/ (part of a
chrooted environment).
Works without a hassle.

It's /tmp/:home/site. I don't want users to complain when they're using
scripts that rely on system's default temporary directory.

It happened that 'include_path' contained /usr/share/pear/. Whatever the
reason, include_once() tried to search for the file there when I provided a
relative path, thus the warning. Weird thin is that it didn't happen *every
time* I used relative paths...

Solution:

/tmp/:/home/site/:/usr/share/pear/
