Whenever ZenCache is running on an installation of PHP with open_basedir restrictions applied, a call to is_dir() triggers a PHP Warning whenever ZenCache is looking for a writable temporary directory.

Next Actions

• Use @ error suppression in these calls to is_dir() and is_writable()

@jaswsinc Thanks for the bug report! Working on this now.

@jaswsinc Wouldn't the @ suppression need to be added to all calls to is_dir() and is_writeable() throughout the codebase to fix this bug?

[raamdev]

@jaswsinc Ah, I see this is related specifically to opening the temp directory:

File(/var/tmp/) is not within the allowed path(s)

So in that case, only modifying the lines you referenced above should be necessary.
