error in path (function.session-save-path) after switching servers

Hi evrybody, I have this error message on top of the first page after my host as changing the servers, I have modify the paths in the configure.php files but this message still appearing:
"Warning: session_save_path() [function.session-save-path]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/kdchab/public_html/cache) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home2/kdchab:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp) in /home2/kdchab/public_html/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 151"
I have check the 2 configure.php files and my paths are "/home2/kdchab/public_html" so I don't understand where to modify "File(/home/kdchab/public_html/cache)" to reflect the good path.
My site is https://www.stitchalley.com
I hope someone may help with a good idea.
Thanks a lot.

(/home/kdchab/public_html/cache) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home2/kdchab ...You need to set the correct session directory in your Admin->Configuration->Sessions
