[Resolved] LiteSpeed Path Issue

[UWH-David]

Having an issue with RVSitebuilder. It appears the script wants to pull from the path which LiteSpeed does not have configured.

[STDERR] PHP Warning: is_file() [<a href='function.is-file'>function.is-file</a>]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php/RVSeagullMod/lib/SGL/FrontController.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/philipss:/usr/lib/php:/usr/php4/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/usr/local/php4/lib/php:/tmp) in /home/philipss/public_html/new/rvscommonfunc.php on line 50


FrontController.php is located @ /usr/local/lib/php/RVSeagullMod/lib/SGL/FrontController.php

So the question is how do I append to the path to meet the requirements of this or change where the default path is searched?

 

[NiteWave]

as the warning message suggested,

FrontController.php is located at /usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php/RVSeagullMod/lib/SGL/

so you need add
/usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php/RVSeagullMod/lib/SGL/
or (should be better)
/usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php/
to your open_basedir (search php.ini)

 

[UWH-David]

That is not the proper path though as explained clearly. The proper path is :

/usr/local/lib/php/RVSeagullMod/lib/SGL/FrontController.php

 

[NiteWave]

what's the include_path value in phpinfo() output?

 

[UWH-David]

include_path .:/usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php .:/usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php

what's the include_path value in phpinfo() output?

 

[NiteWave]

so I think the issue is almost clear: the order of include paths.

when

include "RVSeagullMod/lib/SGL/FrontController.php"

it searches FrontController.php in order of include_path

you wish it get
/usr/local/lib/php/RVSeagullMod/lib/SGL/FrontController.php
instead of
/usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php/RVSeagullMod/lib/SGL/FrontController.php

then try to change include_path in php.ini to
.:/usr/local/lib/php:/usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php
etc

 

[UWH-David]

No Include path is defined @ /usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php.ini which IS the php.ini file used.

Where else would it be pulling from?

made 2 changes, the cPanel plugin RVSitebuilder working now:

1.edit /usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php.ini
add
include_path = ".:/usr/local/lib/php:/usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php"
at the end of php.ini
-- because of RVSitebuilder installed under /usr/local/lib/php

2.edit /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf
vhost "example.com" section, replace
<IfModule sapi_apache2.c>
php_admin_value open_basedir "/home/philipss:/usr/lib/php:/usr/php4/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/usr/local/php4/lib/php:/tmp"
</IfModule>
with
<IfModule sapi_apache2.c>
php_admin_value open_basedir none
</IfModule>
then restart lsws

Not to get too OT here, but if you hand edited the httpd.conf file you are just waiting for a disaster. The next time cPanel rebuilds httpd.conf those chages will get wiped out.

 

[NiteWave]

Thanks for the advice.

not sure where following section in httpd.conf

<IfModule sapi_apache2.c>
php_admin_value open_basedir "/home/philipss:/usr/lib/php:/usr/php4/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/usr/local/php4/lib/php:/tmp"
</IfModule>

came from, should it be defined in which part of cPanel?

this value is picked by lsws and results in the final phpinfo() page.

 

[ffeingol]

Those come from a template that cPanel uses to built the virtual host. I'd look at the documentation on virtualhost includes (http://docs.cpanel.net/twiki/bin/view/EasyApache3/InsideVHost#Using_Include_Files) You can create a configuration file that will only be picked up by that one domain. It adds the include at the very bottom of the virtualhost container. If I understand LSWS correct it will pick up the last version of the directive (i.e. if there are multiple open_basedir) so the includes 'should' work perfect with LSWS.

 

[NiteWave]

yes, /userdata/ is for specific vhost. I saw the directive(php_admin_value ) exist s in every vhost definition. and yes, this is the last version of php_admin_value definition within the vhost.

 

[UWH-David]

Very true. Why is it using the php4 variables anyhow?

[NiteWave]

I think "/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php" is for php5, and "/usr/php4/lib/php:/usr/local/php4/lib/php" for php4. so it includes both php4 and php5.

 

[UWH-David]

And why would it be using PHP4 when it is disabled in LiteSpeed?

I think "/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php" is for php5, and "/usr/php4/lib/php:/usr/local/php4/lib/php" for php4. so it includes both php4 and php5.

 

[NiteWave]

php_admin_value open_basedir "/home/philipss:/usr/lib/php:/usr/php4/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/usr/local/php4/lib/php:/tmp"

is not set by litespeed. it's set by user or app like RVSitebuilder. lsws just inherit user's setting. the user may set "/usr/php3/lib" at his will, lsws can't guess its php3 and don't inherit it.

 

[UWH-David]

There is a PHP4 and a PHP5 section set by cPanel for Apache. LiteSpeed should be picking up the PHP5 section.
