Attachment problem

[Jan51]

I just can`t seem to put any attachments in a tread.
I`m sure that the format is good (.jpg) and the size is correct.
This is the message that i get.

The uploaded file is not a valid GIF or JPG file. Please ensure that it is and try again.

Is this a server problem?

on your board or this board ?

it might be helpful if you posted a link to your phpinfo.php information page.

What's the exact filename? What version of vB are you using? Have you installed any hacks?

[Jan51]

version 2.3.0
I have no hacks installed.

Do you want to know the file name of the attachment i want to upload?

You have open_basedir restrictions on your server. To get uploads to work you need to create a 'tmp' subdirectory under your httpdocs directory and chmod it to 777. Then in the Admin CP set "Upload In Safe Mode?" to 'Yes' and point the "Safe Mode Temp Directory" to that directory. If you placed the tmp directory in the right place, the path to the Safe Mode Temp Directory will be:

/home/httpd/vhosts/motorcycleforum.nl/httpdocs/tmp

Hopefully this will be enough. However since you are on a vhost server you may also need to follow
the instructions in this thread:
