That path does not look correct. server paths never begin with just www

You need to view your php info in the maintenance tab in your vb admin panel to get the full server path.

Which position?

This one?:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

You have a lot Spambots on your Forum
Have you test this hack?

Your web server path is not /usr/local/bin

What kind of web server is this?

Usually server paths are like

/var/www/html

/home/yoursite/public_html

Jan_L · December 23rd, 2011, 06:57 AM

It's a managed server from all-inkl.com

here is a copy from my phpinfo

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Chuck S · December 23rd, 2011, 07:09 AM

You can try that path all I am saying is I have never seen such a path on a server.

Your probally need to get your host to assist if they have some type of atypical server setup

Those are all server related errors on paths. I am not your host so I can not tell you what is correct.

Chuck S · December 23rd, 2011, 07:11 AM

Maybe turn off open_basedir in php setup?

Jan_L · December 23rd, 2011, 07:35 AM

its not on

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

In the errormessage is no path :File([path]/../)

Chuck S · December 23rd, 2011, 09:14 AM

Jan open_basedir is on. If it was off then there would be no entry under that option in your php.ini

Jan_L · December 23rd, 2011, 11:37 AM

Must i turn off open_basedir, only for the installation?

Best Regards

Turn it off and see if things install fine is what I am saying.

You definately have some atypical server setup which is causing your problems.

Jan_L · December 23rd, 2011, 05:47 PM

I have found a different solution. I have add after line 1684

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Installation is running succesfully.

Best Regards
Jan

Chuck S · December 23rd, 2011, 06:14 PM

Yep your server is not translating the path and with open_basedir set on then you are not being allowed to run install.

Like I said an atypical server setup.

Jan_L · December 24th, 2011, 05:05 AM

For all users they have a problem to find the path for the gallery_config.

Upload the small script in the same directory from your forum.
Run the script in your Browser

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

You can see your path for the gallery_config.php

Sorry, i don't have 15 posts

You are not permitted to release or post our copyrighted code anywhere. I have removed the attachment here. Just an FYI

There is no need to modify our files the issue is with your server setup. Your server path is not being translated and your setting open_basedir to on so that is your issue. I know I said this before. No one has reported such an issue in all the years running the product.

Jan_L · December 25th, 2011, 03:20 AM

I've never postet your code. This small script is only for testing.
Inside this script are only 3 lines, nothing from your code.

Chuck S · December 25th, 2011, 09:54 AM

well your free to post code in the mod corner as you wish as long as there are no copyright violations. Here in the support forums there is no need to be posting code.

Well lookie lookie...

I am having this issue... So i guess its more common than you think.

Can I turn the open basdir off in a .htaccess file?
