image upload problem

[padanaram]

I have a database insert script that is running the secure server in a directory called httpsdocs on a plesk server. I am trying to upload images to the images directory in httpdocs. I am having problems moving the pic from the tmp directory to the httpdocs/images directory.

I get the followign error.

Warning: open_basedir restriction in effect. File is in wrong directory in /home/httpd/vhosts/turquoisepueblo.com/httpsdocs/eControlPanel/include/insert.inc on line 107

This is the code I wrote.

move_uploaded_file($_FILES['pCatPic']['tmp_name'], $path . $_FILES['pCatPic']['name']) or die("could not move the file picture 1");

I have been told taht I can move the picture from the tmp directory using the command line. Can anyone help?

I've been pulling my hair out trying to get this to work. I don't want this form to submit empty to my databank when the page loads. This causes a break (the infamous RED X) in the image gallery display.

Can someone please please please help me figure out what is wrong with this code. For the life of me I can't find the reason!!!!!!!!! Thanks.
