Moving zen cart problem

[tallalex85]

Hello,

I've recently moved host and have followed the instructions to the letter

(https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/i...hp?article=100)

The shop works fine but the admin page gives the error

Warning: session_save_path() [function.session-save-path]: open_basedir restriction in effect. 
File(/home/fhlinux153/a/aliandna.co.uk/user/htdocs/shop/cache) 
is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/fabulousfuk/public_html/) in 
/home/fabulousfuk/public_html/shop/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 151

As you will have guessed /home/fhlinux153/a/aliandna.co.uk/user/htdocs/shop/cache is from the old host. I've run the fix_cache_key and it says they're fine. I've searched the database and even downloaded and search the files and can't find any reference to the old path (except in the error log!).

Where is it getting it from?

Thanks!

Did you double check your admin/includes/configure.php?

[tallalex85]

Yep, definitely set to the new /home/fabulousfuk/public_html/shop

[tallalex85]

Fixed it!

For some reason there was a configure.php in admin/includes/local which had the details of the old database which has the old path in it!

How random, but happy it's solved!
Thanks for the help

You should delete that extra file from the /admin/includes/local folder, unless you know exactly why it's there

I have the same problem but the cache / session confguration info is in database!
I can see there in sql dump

INSERT INTO `cust138_configuration` (`configuration_id`, `configuration_title`, `configuration_key`, `configuration_value`, `configuration_description`, `configuration_group_id`, `sort_order`, `last_modified`, `date_added`, `use_function`, `set_function`) VALUES (305, 'Session Directory', 'SESSION_WRITE_DIRECTORY', '/home/myserver00/d/myaccount/html/cust/katalog/cache', 'If sessions are file based, store them in this directory.', 15, 1, NULL, '2008-03-10 14:23:26', NULL, NULL);

and that makes the path wrong.
What sql command I use to change a single configuration like this?

[DrByte]

Use the fix-cache-key utility mentioned in the FAQ article quoted in the first post at the top of this thread.

If you can login to your Admin section you could also just edit the following, to use the correct path.

Admin > Configuration > Sessions : Session Directory


If you cannot login to your Admin then using the "fix-cache-key utility" mentioned by DrByte is the best method.

Thanks. I will do that next time when I have the problem if so.
Now I fixed by making the sql right and uploaded that table by dropping and inserting the new info totally again for that table.

All works. Thanks.
