Do you have shared hosting? or a VPS? "open_basedir restriction in effect." is a setting in your php.ini file which can be access through root on any server. I would contact your host.

Your accessing something outside of what you are allocated.

Check your $_include_path, it may be set to something like /home/ or /home/bla/ which you really do not have access to, and you need to set it to your directory.
