I just upgraded version 2.3 (Build: 2) to version 2.3 (Build 3) but when I create a new website and go to wp-admin, I get the following error message:

Warning : file_exists(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/domain.com/public_html/wp-content/db.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/tmp:/home/domain.com/) in /home/domain.com/public_html/wp-includes/load.php on line 569

Hello @khongngu

Go to List Websites → yourdomain.com → open_basedir and disable it

Thank @josephgodwinke , I enabled the “open_basedir Protection” function when creating a new website. And also go to the enable operation as shown in the picture. But the error is still the error!

Remove this value and disable open_basedir as advised here Warning** : file_exists(): open_basedir restriction in effect. After upgrading to version 2.3 (Build 3) - #2 by josephgodwinke

Thank @josephgodwinke
I followed you, delete the line

php_admin_value open_basedir “/tmp:$VH_ROOT”
php_admin_value open_basedir “/tmp:$VH_ROOT”

Then disable the open_basedir
The bug issue has been resolved, but does that have any security implications?

Limit the files that can be accessed by PHP to the specified directory-tree, including the file itself.
When a script tries to access the filesystem, for example using include, or fopen(), the location of the file is checked. When the file is outside the specified directory-tree, PHP will refuse to access it. All symbolic links are resolved, so it’s not possible to avoid this restriction with a symlink. If the file doesn’t exist then the symlink couldn’t be resolved and the filename is compared to (a resolved) open_basedir
