cannot upload files via http

All, I've installed PHP Version 4.3.9 as an Apache module, Apache/2.0.52, and RHEL 4. I have a script that uploads files fine when open_basedir is commented out but fails whenever open_basedir is set to "./" With open_basedir = "./", I specify the upload_tmp_dir = /tmp and also have included /tmp on my php_admin_value open_basedir directive in the httpd.conf just in case. With all these set, the file never gets created. However, if I create a file, named foo.txt at the shell prompt and then try to upload the same file foo.txt file via http, it overwrites it. So, it only fails when it tries to create a new file over http. Here is my upload script: if (is_uploaded_file($file_array['tmp_name'])) { move_uploaded_file($file_array['tmp_name'], "$full_path") or die ("Couldn't copy"); print "file uploaded!<br><br>"; } Any clues?
