I am having problems getting this plugin to function. I get this error message on the page. Any Ideas?

Warning: is_dir() [function.is-dir]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/url/stitchimages/) is not within the allowed path(s): (/www/eh(removed)) in /www/eh(removed)/public_html/show_08/plugins/pi.low_random.php on line 148

Thanks

David

I don’t know the plugin in detail, but the error isn’t strictly based on the plugin itself but on your server setup: An open_basedir restriction informs you the the script can’t access the given path/file.

In your case, it seems that you entered a URL path /url/stichimages/ for the folder parameter that now is handled as an absolute server path. Most likely, either something like /www/eh(removed)/public_html/url/stichimages/ (or whatsoever) as an absolute server path might work or a relative path like ../../url/stichimages/ or ./url/stichimages/ - see Low’s comment at the end of this page.

I did read Low’s comments.

I checked with my ISP Engine Hosting and www/eh7082/public_html/images_homepage is correct for the server path but I don’t get any images or any error message. If I remove www then I get the error message. I also tried a relative path and get the same error message.
