safe mode help

Hi, I'm pulling my hair out trying to make this work and any help
would be appreciated ...

When I try to move the uploaded file:
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],"/var/www/vho sts/
mydomain.com/intranet/httpdocs/lib/slips/in/$filename.pdf");

I get the following error:
Warning: move_uploaded_file(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The
script whose uid is 10001 is not allowed to access /var/www/vhosts/
mydomain.com owned by uid 0

However, my phpinfo() tells me that the master value for safe mode is
Off. Why do I keep getting SAFE MODE errors iwhen php tells me that
safe mode is turned off?

Pleeeease help. Thanks.

What's the local value for safe_mode in phpinfo()? Are you loading the
phpinfo() page from the same directory as you're calling
move_uploaded_file() (i.e. safe_mode could be set on a per-directory
instance)?

Thanks for the quick response.

The local value for safe_mode in phpinfo() is set to On and I've tried
to figure out how to change that because I thought it might have
something to do with it but I've been unsuccessful.

The upload form is in this directory:
/var/www/vhosts/mydomain.com/intranet/httpdocs/receiving/

And it posts to a form-handling php file in the same directory where
the phpinfo call is made:
/var/www/vhosts/mydomain.com/intranet/httpdocs/form_submits. php
/var/www/vhosts/mydomain.com/intranet/httpdocs/phpinfo.php

I'm getting the error in the forms.php file

Re: safe mode help

Correction to the last line of my response:
> I'm getting the error in the forms.php file

Should read: I'm getting the error in the form_submits.php file

Check your httpd.conf file.

I'm not an expert in this area and am not sure what to check for ...
Can you be more specific?

I added the following line in my httpd.conf file, but the local value
for safe_mode remains on (and I did restart apache):


ServerAlias intranet.mydomain.com
ServerAdmin webmaster@mydomain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/vhosts/mydomain.com/subdomains/intranet/
httpdocs
ServerName intranet.mydomain.com
ErrorLog logs/dummy-host.example.com-error_log
CustomLog logs/dummy-host.example.com-access_log common
php_admin_flag safe_mode 0


Obviously I've replaced myip and mydomain.com with the appropriate
values.

This should be
php_admin_flag safe_mode off

not zero.

The only two places you should be able to set safe_mode are in php.ini
and in httpd.conf. Otherwise it is restricted (so people can't turn it
off).

Check the rest of your httpd.conf file - is it set globally? If so, I'm
not sure you can turn it off like that. But then I've never tried, either.

And just in case, check your php.ini file - and see if you have more
than one on your system.

Re: safe mode help

Thanks for the help. I just needed to make some changes in my
vhost.conf file ...

Between your suggestions and a little Googling I've gotten it working.
Many thanks!
