Error / Problem

We seem to have this happen when we go to change avatars...

at the top it says:

Warning: tempnam(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/vdeck/tmp) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/belliesb/:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp:/var/tmp:/home/vdeck/tmp/:/usr/local/bin/mogrify:/usr/local/bin/convert:/usr/sbin/sendmail) in /includes/class_upload.php on line 297

and then as a board message you get:

vBulletin Message
Upload failed due to failure writing temporary file.

Any ideas on what could be causing this? nothing new has been added to the boards for a LONG time!

Looks like your host may have changed open_basedir restriction (safe_mode) or that folder isnt writable anymore, make sure the chmod 777 is set correctly on that folder.

Admincp:

Safe Mode Temporary Directory
If your server is running in PHP Safe Mode, you'll need to specify a directory that is CHMOD to 777 that will act as a temporary directory for uploads. All files are removed from this directory after database insertion.

Note: Do NOT include the trailing slash ('/') after the directory name.

Thanks.
