Not a MySQL interaction problem. If you look at the error messages presented (see below) you'll see that the script has been uploaded to the /tmp directory, which, due to the sandbox being in effect, is inaccessible to a PHP script running in an ibay. PHP access to a MySQL database via mysql_* calls works fine. ----cut from phpMyAdmin output---- Warning: open_basedir restriction in effect.

Once again, most likely a problem with a PHP script trying to access a file stored outside it's sandbox, rather than interaction problems with MySQL. >From your description of the problem, the sandbox is working exactly the way it was intended - it's restricting access to *files*, not your database. -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives by mail and http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org
