Title: PHP event: code E_WARNING: is_dir(): open_basedir restriction Last modified: March 24, 2024 --- # PHP event: code E_WARNING: is_dir(): open_basedir restriction * Resolved [bepoostrava](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bepoostrava/) * (@bepoostrava) * [2 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/php-event-code-e_warning-is_dir-open_basedir-restriction/) * Hi, I use UpdraftPlus to backup my website. After converting PHP from version 7.4.28 to version 8.1.3, UpdraftPlus reports these warnings. Although the backup will be done, but with these caveats. I tried splitting the archive into every 50MB, but this didn’t help. I also tried setting “open_basedir” to “none” in PHPMyAdmin, but that didn’t help either.Thanks in advance for your help! * I am posting an extract from the backup log below: * 0000.000 (0) Opened log file at time: Sun, 24 Mar 2024 09:52:30 +0000 on [https://www.bozp-consult.cz](https://www.bozp-consult.cz) 0000.001 (0) UpdraftPlus WordPress backup plugin ([https://updraftplus.com](https://updraftplus.com)): 2.24.1.26 WP: 6.4.3 PHP: 8.1.3 (fpm-fcgi, FreeBSD gump.miniserver.cz 13.2-STABLE FreeBSD 13.2-STABLE stable/13-df5bb849a GENERIC amd64) MySQL: 10.3.34-MariaDB- log (max packet size=33554432) WPLANG: cs_CZ Server: Apache safe_mode: 0 max_execution_time: 900 memory_limit: 512M (used: 59.7M | 122M) multisite: N openssl: OpenSSL 1.1.1l- freebsd 24 Aug 2021 mcrypt: N LANG: ZipArchive::addFile: Y 0000.003 (0) Free space on disk containing Updraft’s temporary directory: 127939.8 MB 0000.005 ( 0) Tasks: Backup files: 1 (schedule: manual) Backup DB: 1 (schedule: manual) 0000.007 (0) Requesting semaphore lock (fd) (apparently not via scheduler) 0000.011( 0) Set semaphore last lock (fd) time to 2024-03-24 09:52:30 0000.012 (0) Semaphore lock (fd) complete 0000.016 (0) Backup run: resumption=0, nonce=8a8839780aff, file_nonce=8a8839780aff begun at=1711273950 (0s ago), job type=backup 0000.021( 0) Scheduling a resumption (1) after 300 seconds (1711274250) in case this run gets aborted 0000.026 (0) PHP event: code E_WARNING: file_exists(): open_basedir restriction in effect.
