Problems with the Automatic Plugin Update

    Hey guys,

    Since some days I’m getting the following error messages, whenever I try to use the automatic update to update a plugin:

    Warning: file_exists() [function.file-exists]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp//1220478786) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/web28/html/:/var/www/web28/phptmp/:/var/www/web28/files/:/var/www/web28/atd/) in /var/www/web28/html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 1559

    Warning: touch() [function.touch]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp/1220478786) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/web28/html/:/var/www/web28/phptmp/:/var/www/web28/files/:/var/www/web28/atd/) in /var/www/web28/html/wp-admin/includes/file.php on line 95

    Warning: fileowner() [function.fileowner]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp/1220478786) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/web28/html/:/var/www/web28/phptmp/:/var/www/web28/files/:/var/www/web28/atd/) in /var/www/web28/html/wp-admin/includes/file.php on line 451

    Warning: unlink() [function.unlink]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp/1220478786) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/web28/html/:/var/www/web28/phptmp/:/var/www/web28/files/:/var/www/web28/atd/) in /var/www/web28/html/wp-admin/includes/file.php on line 453

    It than asks me to provide the FTP connection details and when I do, it throws out more of the same errors and adds:

    Warning: ftp_rawlist() [function.ftp-rawlist]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/tmp) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/web28/html/:/var/www/web28/phptmp/:/var/www/web28/files/:/var/www/web28/atd/) in /var/www/web28/html/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-ftpext.php on line 192

    Warning: ftp_rawlist() [function.ftp-rawlist]: Unable to create temporary file. Check permissions in temporary files directory. in /var/www/web28/html/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-ftpext.php on line 192

    WordPress-Plugin Directory couldn’t be found.

    The installation was unsuccessful.

    When I check the line 192 in the class-wp-filesystem-ftpext.php, I’m unable to find anything about permissions…

    This problem pretty much came out of nothing (or nothing I could specify), as only a few weeks back, the automatic update worked fine…

    Anyone has an idea where this problem is coming from? Or even better, how to dissolve it?

    Thanks already

    I’m having the same and according to my host provider the correct tmp-dir location is /tmp instead of /var/tmp – I guess this is a host specific setting… (got this reaction today from my host provider).

    Haven’t been able to crack the issue yet as I can’t find where the /var/tmp is set in the WordPress code 😐

    In your cause it should be one of the following:

    /var/www/web28/html/:/var/www/web28/phptmp/:/var/www/web28/files/:/var/www/web28/atd/

    And I think you should use the: /var/www/web28/phptmp/

    Define your temp folder in the config.php

    define('WP_TEMP_DIR','/tmp');
