I migrated my site and updated the path in the index.php file and changed the template path in the Admin Control Panel, however I am still getting this message after turning on error messaging:

A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Warning

Message: require_once(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/domain/public_html/php/simplepie.inc) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/vhosts/domain/httpdocs/:/tmp/)

Filename: libraries/Functions.php(656) : eval()‘d code

Line Number: 3

As you can see the old path from the previous server is still throwing an error.  I have spent hours trying to troubleshoot.  Does anyone know what I am missing?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I fixed the Error message, which was a path setting configured in my template directory.

Now, I’m getting a white screen though, when the page loads.

Any suggestions?

Hey Jerry,

You may want to use a tool like Deploy Helper (Hop Studios, http://www.hopstudios.com/software/deeploy_helper/) or REElocate (Exp:resso, http://devot-ee.com/add-ons/reelocate) in the future. We use the former for most of our sites.

With that said, these will not help with your white screen. To solve that, open up your index.php file (or admin/index.php) and locate “$debug = 0;”

Change that 0 to a 1 and you should start to see error messages.
