trouble with fireboard in joomla 1.0.13

wasn't sure if this should go here or in html/css so bump if need be :)

these are the errors I'm getting from the site forum here (http://canoes.no-ip.info/index.php?option=com_fireboard&Itemid=38&func=showcat&catid=21)...

Warning: main() [function.main]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/interpreter.bbcode.inc.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/var/www/vhosts/canoes.no-ip.info/httpdocs:/tmp) in /var/www/vhosts/canoes.no-ip.info/httpdocs/components/com_fireboard/sources/interpreter.fireboard.inc.php on line 40

Fatal error: Class 'BBCodeInterpreter' not found in /var/www/vhosts/canoes.no-ip.info/httpdocs/components/com_fireboard/sources/interpreter.fireboard.inc.php on line 42

I've uninstalled and reinstalled the fireboard component twice and quite honestly I don't remember if the errors came up without me copying the db back in

any thoughts would be greatly appreciated

Your first problem is using Joomla for a CMS.

(kidding, kidding ;))

It looks like most of these problems are path-related; you just need to double-check your config file(s) to make sure everything is set correctly. For example, you might be using absolute paths (/included-file.php) instead of server paths (/var/path/to/httpdocs/included-file.php).

I had the same problem, harlequin2k5!

Open up: /components/com_fireboard/sources/interpreter.fireboard.inc.php

On Line 40, just change the following:

OLD:
include_once("interpreter.bbcode.inc.php");

NEW:
include_once(JB_ABSSOURCESPATH."interpreter.bbcode.inc.php");


Save and upload. All errors went away, and forum is now usable.
