admin-ajax.php and open_basedir issues

    Recently I started having some issues in the back end of wordpress.

    I noticed those problems after doing two changes to the back end (I’m not sure in what order these 2 changes were made):
    1. I upgraded to wordpress 3.6 (from 3.5)
    2. I updated the domain name (the server is the same).

    The problems I’m experiencing are:

    1. admin-ajax.php is not loading.
    In firebug I can see the url requested is wrong (https://wpinstall/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php). It should be something like (https://www.mysite.com/wpinstall/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php)

    As you can image this ends up affecting lots of the back end functionality.

    2. In the Permalinks Settings page I see this error:
    Warning: is_writable(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/) is not within the allowed path(s): (/chroot:/home:/tmp:/dev/shm:/usr/share/pear) in /chroot/home/aerostud/aerostudios.com/html/tob/wp-admin/options-permalink.php on line 130 Warning: is_writable(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/) is not within the allowed path(s): (/chroot:/home:/tmp:/dev/shm:/usr/share/pear) in /chroot/home/aerostud/aerostudios.com/html/tob/wp-admin/includes/misc.php on line 133

    I would appreciate any leads on how to solve these issues. Thank you so much.

    I’m having trouble posting a follow up to this issue.

    I hope this helps anyone in the future that is having the same predicament I had.

    After my admin turned open_basedir in the the server php settings all of this issues quietly went away.
