Just an update on the problem above. This is now resolved! I think there were probably two seperate problems here. The first was the oopen_basedir problem which Midphase support solved for me.
Next, the error message:
~~~
The uploaded file could not be moved to .
~~~
was probably an entirely seperate problem and turned out to be a simple permissions error. I thought I had already tried changing permissions via my FTP package. In any case, administering permissions through Midphase’s cpanel did the trick.
Problem solved! Hope this helps anyone searching for a solution to the same problem ??
