Hi, before I ask my question, I would first like to state that it is my great honor to be given advice from respectable php experts like yourselves. I would also like to thank each of you for your advice and help, I really do appreciate it.

The problem is, when one enters their email in the space provided and hits "invite", the following errors come up.

Warning: fopen(tmp/4.txt) [function fopen]: failed to open stream. Permissions denied in /home/a7278579/public_html/index.php on line 63

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/a7278579/public_html/index.php on line 64

Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION can not be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in /home/a7278579/public_html/index.php on line 77

Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION can not be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in /home/a7278579/public_html/index.php on line 106

Please tell me how I can fix these errors and get my website to function properly. The web host I am using supports - PHP 4 / 5.+ - CURL - Zend Optimizer. I desperately need your help. If you need any further information from me, such as the php code itself, please don't hesitate to ask. I appreciate you help more than you know. Thank you all.

Your first problem is that PHP doesn't have permission to write to the 'tmp' directory. Likely, you need to set the permissions of the directory to 777 to give the process that runs PHP the 'write' privilege.

For the second problem with cURL, the error message pretty much states what to do... if you want to use CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, you'll have to disable safe_mode and open_basedir. If that's not possible (e.g. restrictions imposed by your host), then you'll have to handle following "Location:" headers on a 3xx response manually.

Dear bradgrafelman, thank you very much for the information. I sincerely appreciate your help. The errors of fopen and fclose have been fixed thanks to you. However, I still need help with the remaining CURL errors. Can you please explain further how I can disable safe_mode and open_basedir. The errors say that safe_mode and/or open_basedir is enabled in index.php But when I go to edit index.php, safe_mode and open_basedir are nowhere to be found. How can I disable safe_mode or open_basedir when they are not in my index.php file? Will I have to add the command to disable them manually? If so, will you please be so kind as to tell me how to do that? Thank you so much.
